In court under oath, Joe Wilkes stated that he was saying "what they told me to say" as he pointed at the prosecutors. He has recanted his confession. Joe testified at David's post-conviction hearing to these facts and told how the police coerced him into implicating David and how they denied him an attorney. The court ruled that was not enough to warrant giving David Thorne a new trial. One would have to wonder, what is enough?
