Was a Texas youth convicted for a horrific crime because he's gay?
In Railroaded: The Homophobic Prosecution of Brandon Woodruff for His Parents' Murders author Phillip Crawford Jr. details how anti-gay bias rather than relevant evidence drove the case against a young defendant. In October 2005 nineteen-year-old Brandon Dale Woodruff was charged with murdering his parents in a rural northeast Texas town in the heart of the Bible belt. Dennis and Norma Woodruff had been sitting together on a sofa before the television set on a Sunday evening in their double wide manufactured home in Royse City, and both were shot and stabbed multiple times in their faces. It was a bloodbath. There was no direct evidence tying the couple's son to the gruesome crime to warrant his arrest - no eyewitnesses, no murder weapons, no bloody prints - but investigators were convinced the teen boy was living a double life who killed when his two worlds supposedly collided. Brandon was a horse wrangler and attending Abilene Christian University, and he also was a porn actor and dancing at Dallas gay clubs. There was no double life; just a boy coming out. At trial in March 2009 the prosecution took a coming out story and turned Brandon into The Talented Mr. Ripley. Prosecutors claimed because the boy still was in the process of coming out that he was a duplicitous character which constituted evidence of guilt. The prosecution also entailed investigative blunders, dirty tricks and questionable evidence which further deprived Brandon Woodruff of a fair trial. Eight jurors believed "that being homosexual or gay is morally wrong," and the jury convicted him after deliberating only five hours. Brandon Woodruff was railroaded with a homophobic narrative, and is serving a life sentence without parole.Author Biography
Phillip Crawford Jr. is a retired attorney from the New York bar. He attended Bates College in Lewiston, Maine from which he graduated with a B.A. in English in 1985. At Bates he was President of the Gay-Straight Alliance, and in 1983 spearheaded a campaign to oust military recruiters from the campus for their discriminatory policies against the LGBT community. He attended George Washington University Law School where he was a Notes Editor for the Law Review. After graduating with highest honors as class salutatorian in 1988 he clerked for Chief Judge Judith W. Rogers on the D.C. Court of Appeals, and then with Judge George H. Revercomb on the United States District Court for the District of Columbia. He practiced law for fifteen years in New York City including several years with the plaintiffs' class action bar, and then retired after exposing his concerns about billing practices. Professor Lester Brickman characterized him in "Lawyer Barons" as a "whistle blower." Crawford is the author of "The Mafia and the Gays" about the historic role of organized crime in LGBT nightlife.
