Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit June 22, 1998, 96-3187 (Jerome White v. Salvador A. Godinez)

CUMMINGS, Circuit Judge.

This appeal from the district court’s denial of a writ of habeas corpus springs ultimately from a murder that took place on August 6, 1982. On that date, A1 Walker and Doyle Johnson robbed and shot Waymond Jackson and Donald Stewart at a rest area on Interstate 57 near Pesotum, Illinois.
