Brian Scott Lorenz was convicted of killing a young mother near Buffalo in 1993. Erie County District Attorney, Michael Keane, is fighting a judge’s decision last year to throw out the case citing DNA taken from the crime scene that did not match either defendant and the fact that prosecutors had not revealed evidence to the defense.

Keane went on to lose every subsequent race for public office. Obviously, Keane realized his political fortunes were at an end unless he ingratiated himself with some Blacks over the next two decades, Byron Brown being one of them.”
