Government Obstruction
By Zaire Small
Hi, I’m Zaire Small and in March 2020 I was forced into an unlawful guilty plea of 11 ½ to 25 years for 3rd degree murder.
During my preliminary in February 2019, I hired private counsel. For him to continue to represent me for trial, I had to pay an additional fee by a certain time. (I think he gave me about 2 months.) Feeling as though he did not fight hard enough to get any charges dropped so I can bail out and have a better chance to fight from home, I didn’t pay. A court appointed lawyer was assigned to me for trial that would be held on March 3rd, 2020.
My trial lawyer showed promise at first, so I offered to hire him privately. He really can’t give me a price until it was around the time for pre-trial. The court appointed lawyer finally gave me my discovery a few weeks before trial. Because of this and the lack of promise he was showing at this point, I decided to re-hire the lawyer who represented me at the preliminary. During a pre-trial hearing that same week, both my preliminary lawyer and the court appointed lawyer came down to the basement of the Criminal Justice Center (CJC) where I was being held.
The preliminary lawyer, which I had just re-hired, told me the judge will not allow him to represent me for trial and that he was going to give back the money my family had given him for trial. The court appointed lawyer said the judge told him only he was allowed to be my lawyer. Either him or represent myself pro se. This is clearly a violation of my Constitutional Right to Private Counsel. Also, in doing so is Ineffective Assistance of Counsel for not recognizing and fighting for that right.
During that meeting in the bottom of CJC, the preliminary lawyer informed me that the District Attorney (DA) was offering me 12 ½ to 25 years. The preliminary lawyer also informed me that he knew the DA supervisor and he talked to him and got him to take a year off the minimum. Actually, both lawyers worked for the DA office at one point earlier in their careers.
When I asked the court appointed lawyer to ask the judge for a continuance, he told me she said no. Up until this time, I’ve never had or requested a continuance. When it was time to pick a jury, I asked her personally in the courtroom can I have a continuance so I can hire private counsel in order to prepare a proper defense, she said no. This was clearly Abuse of Authority, Abuse of Power and Abuse of Discretion. Also, Obstruction of Justice and Governmental Interference.
They charged me with General Murder (all 3 degrees) all the way up until I was forced to take an unlawful guilty plea. I didn’t get a fair trial. I was either take the deal or go to trial unprepared and risk going to prison for the rest of my life for a case I believe was self-defense.
Docket Number: CR-51-CR-0002056-2019

On da run wit my bby + she’z gon ride til da wheelz fall off
Dey label me cray-z my face on a wanted poster
Extremely dangerous I keep my gun inside a holster
I neva choose dis life dis world waz chosen 4 me
Born in the fire I didn’t know it waz hell
But in time I made it all work 4 me
Itz in my blood I know it all 2 well
My daddy’s a outlaw his daddy’s a outlaw
I inherited dis way of life
It cost u time if u do da crime
Don’t ask how much if u can’t pay da price
When I die wen I’m gon 4eva mourn me
Will I see heaven I got no shot in hell
A life of crime can’t trust a soul
It getz very lonely
Don’t wana see prison steady avoiding jail
It come wit da game da choices we made
Itz all I know this is it
I could’ve been anything did anything
But I’m so good at dis shit
Fast money + fast carz fast firlz itz da fast life
Got me thinkin I know life
Livin da high life
Made me a low life.
