Lozano. Just the name conjures up a kaleidoscope of memories. A different time in my life. I still carry the scars of those battles. They so desperately wanted, no needed, a conviction, they didn’t even do it subtly. Just a few years before we had defended Luis Alvarez, which spawned two riots and they didn’t want that again. I described Alvarez in the first chapter of my book, Black’s Law, but Lozano was too hard to write. Until now.
Why now? On March 25, I participated in the 11th Judicial Circuit Centennial Symposium panel about the case. I agreed to do it without really thinking about what it would entail. Once I started it hit me. I read a small part of the file we created over the years. At one time it ran hundreds of banker boxes but there was only one left. The file was accumulated in the pre-electronic era and thus my hard drive was mostly empty. What I did read dredged up long forgotten details, some even at odds with my personal recollection.
