APPLICANT'S PROPOSED FINDINGS OF FAGGNAT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS IN OBJECTIONS TO STATE'S RESPONSE WU! 062015
TO THE HONORABLE JUDGES OF SAID COURT:
Mool Appoas, Cibark
NOW COMES, Jamal Anton Reed, Applicant in the above mentioned cause hereby files this Proposed Findings of Facts in Objections to State's Response in accordance with Article 11.07 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure and would like to present to this Court the following:
FACTS TO SUPPORT OBJECTIONS
(1). The State is quick to state that these allegations are to be denied since they were not brought up on Direct Appeal. The ruling majority continues to chastise any applicant from raising issues on a Writ of Habeas Corpus that could have been raised on direct appeal. But, is the applicant to be chasitsed and punish aaplicant when it was his attorney's job to raise those issues and is the applicant to suffer for his appellate cpounsel's failure to do so? (2). Applicant has trying from day one of his incarceration trying to obatin a copy of his psychological report from Dr. Burns but has been impeded by the state and appellate court from obtaining such evidence and now the state has graciously provided him a copy which makes this newly discovered evidence.
In the report on page 3 it shown that the applicant was taking medication orhad taken medication for the symptoms during the time of his alleged offense. It was for a sexually transmitted disease and the court failed to bring this evidence to light since the victim never shown any such symptoms if the applicant was indeed part of the criminal act.
*2 (3). The applicant was not accused by the victim as being one of the assailants during her trying ordeal. He was either suspect 1 or suspect 2 since neither party had been unmasked to bee identified. His accuser was one 13-year old informant who was arrested for cutting off his monitor and made a statement:. Then released and arrested again and made a different statement. This information was not brought forth neither was the informant who made the statement by the state in order to prove identity. This was in a direct violation of the confrontation clause. (4). The confession of the applicant is null and void since there was so much durress and coercion iused by the detectives by taking the applicant from one place to another and overbaring his will by not giving him any rest or a chance to be with his mother or attorney during the interrogation process. See Affidavit in application. (5). On March 10, 1994 Cause number 52783-J was dismissed since the applicant was certified in cause number 52784-J. This cause number dealt with section 22.021 and 30.02 of the Texas Penal Code. See Exhibit One. Once the district court was given jurisdiction the sexual assault case was given a seperate indictment number and the robbery a seperate indictment number. The sexual assault charge was split between 52783-J and 52784-J which indicated two seperate sexual assaults, but only one incident. (6). On04-19-94 ENA test were run on parts of evidence in question were the tests shown that the semen collected was not that of the applicant and there were 5 men tested and the only two that had matching issues was Atrice Oliver and Donald Bolden. There was not enough evidence to do extensive testing. See exhibit two.
Test number two performed on April 9, 2012 shown that the applicant is to not be excluded. The sperm fraction of the oral swabs from the victim is a mixture of at least two individuals, including at least one male. But, yet two males and one woman is to not be excluded. Yet, there was concrete evidence that the applicant was one of the actors. See Exhibit three. (7). On March 10, 1994, the juvenile court granted ststae's motion to waive jurisdictin and transferred applicnt's case to the 297th Judicial District Court.
*3 The trial court entered a verdict of guilty and punishment of eighty (80) years confinement in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice-Correctional Division on March 17, 1995. He was convicted of aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon, to wit: a firearm, and aggravated sexual assault with a deadly weapn, to wit: a firearm.
His appeal was filed then affirmed on January 15, 2004, according to the State, 9 years after the verdict.
On this Habeas Application the applicant contends that the Court erred in waiving jurisdiction. Specifically, he argues that the juvenile court abused it's discretion because (1) it failed to provide a specific statement of its reasons for waiver to certify its fact findings; (2) it misunderstood and misapplied the factors it was required to consider in deciding to waive jurisdiction; (3) the finding related to applicant's sophistication and maturitywas unsupported by the evidence; (4) its finding related to adequate protection of the public and unlikelihood of rehabilitation was unsupported nby the evidence; and (5) it based its decision on factors that are not proper considerations in the waiver analysis; (6) failed to render a service of summons upon the applicant.
The State however, argues that the juvenile court followed proper procedures in reaaching its decision and the evidence supported the court's findings.
In Kent v. U.S., 383 U.S. 541, 86 S.Ct. 1045, 16 L.Ed. 2nd 84 (1966), the United States Supreme Court stated that "[i]t id clear beyond dispute that the waiver of jurisdiction is a 'critically importsant' action determining vitally important statutory rights of the juvenile."id. at 556. The Court characterized the "decision as to waiver of jurisidiction and transfer of the matter to the District Court [as] potentially as important to petitioner as the difference between five years imprisonment and a death sentence." id at 557 .
In Hildago v. State, 983 S.W.2d 746 (Tex.Crim.App. 1999), this Court likewise recognized that "transfer to criminal district court for adult prosecution is 'the single most serious act the juvenile court can perform...because once waiver of jurisdiction occurs, the child loses all protective and rehabilative possibilities available.'" id. at 755.
This Court held in Hidalgo, that "transfer was intended to be used only in exceptional circumstances" and that "[t]he philosophy was that whenever
*4 possible, children 'should be protected and rehabilitated rather than subjected to the harshness of the criminal system' because 'children, all children are worth redeeming.'" id. at 754 (citation omitted).
Section 54.02 of the Family Code authorizes a juvenile court to waive its exclusive, original jurisdiction and to transfer a child to a criminal district court if: (1), the child is alleged to have committed a felony; (2) the child was fourteen years of age or older if the alleged offense is a first degree felony or fifteen years of age or older if the alleged offense is a second degree felony; and (3) after a full investigation and hearing, the juvenile court determines that there is a probable cause to believe that the juvenile committed the offense alleged and that because of the seriousness of the offense alleged or the background of the juvenile, the welfare of the community requires criminal proceedings. Tex. Fam. Code Ann. §54.02(a) (West Supp. 2012),
Before 1995, the family Code authorized civil appeals from an order "respecting transfer of the child to a criminal court for prosecution as an adult." In 1995, the legislature deleted former Family Code section 56.01 (c)(1)(A), which had allowed a civil appeal from an order waiving jurisdiction. See Act of May 27, 1995, 74th Leg., R.S., ch. 262, §48, 1995 Tex. Gen. Laws 2517, 2546.
In the absence of a statute allowing an appeal, the result was that the waiver-of-jurisdiction order could only be appealed as in criminal cases generally, i.e., after final conviction in the criminal court. See Apolinar v. State, 820 S.W.2d 792, 793 (Tex.Crim.App. 1991).
To limit the juvenile court's discretion in making the waiver determination, the Supreme Court in Kent set out a series of factors for juvenile courts to consider. Hidalgo, 983 S.W.2d at 754 (citing Kent, 383 U.S. at 566-67). The factors are incorporated into section 54.02(f), which provides as follows: (1) whether the alleged offense was against person or property, with greater weight in favor of transfer given to offenses against the person; (2) the sophistication and maturity of the child; (3) the record and previous history of the child; and (4) the prospects of adequate protection of the public, and the liklihood of the rehabilitation of the child by use of procedures, services, and facilities currently available to the juvenile court. Tex. Fam. Code Ann. §54.02(f).The juvenile court "may order a transfer on the strength of any combination of the criteria" listed in subsection (f). Hidalgo, 983 S.W.2d at 754n. 16 (citing U.S. v. Doe, 871 F.2d 1248, 1254-55 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, 493 U.S. 917,110 S.Ct. 276,107 L.Bd. 2d 257 (1989)).
Section 54.02(d) requires that, prior to the hearing on the motion to transfer, the juvenile court's "shall order and obtain a complete diagnostic study, social evaluationand full investigation of the child, his circumstances,
*5 and the circumstances of the alleged offense." Tex. Fam. Code Ann. §54.02(d). If the juvenile court waives jurisdiction, it must "state specifically in the order its reasons for waiver and certify its action, including the written order and findings of the court..."id. §54.02(h). Rigid adherence to these requirements is mandatory before a court may waive its jurisdiction over a juvenile. In Re, J.R.C., 522 S.W.2d 579, 582-83 (Tex.Civ.App.-Texarkana 1975, writ ref'd .r.e.); see also In re, J.T.H., 779 S.W. 2d 954, 960 (Tex. App.-Austin 1989, no pet.). (8) In its Order to Waive Jurisdiction, the juvenile court found that "because of the seriousness of the offense, the welfare of the community requires criminal proceeding. Tex. Fam. Code Ann. §54.02(a0(3). The juvenile Courtnoted that, in making that determination, it had considered the four factors enumerated in section 54.02(f). (9) Reed contends that the juvenile Court's finding to his sophistication and maturity is unsupported by the evidence. In Hidalgo, this Court noted that a psychological examination is ordinarily required to assist the court in assessing a juvenile's sophisticatio, maturity, and the likelihood of rehabilitation as required by subsection (f). In his evaluation Dr. Burns concluded that Reed"is in a low average range of general intelligence, his visual and motor skills are below expectation, he was basically very cooperative and friendly, his thinking was appropriate with no bizzare thought content. He is not well controlled emotionally!| there was evidence of the lower level of aquisition of society's norms and values, essentially the results are consistent with conduct disorder, behavior problems, or a characterological disorder. Nowhere did the Dr. state that Reed was sophisticated and mature but had a rationale to help his attorney.
The applicant concedes that the juvenile court is sole fact-finder and can choose to believe or disbelieve any or all witness testimony. Nonethe less, there must be some evidence to support the juvenile court's finding that Reed was sufficiently sophisticated and mature enough for the reasons specified by the court in order to uphold its waiver determination. This court's review should preclude that there was no evidence supportive of the Oourt's findings that Reed was "of sufficient sophistication and maturity to have intelligently!| knowingly, and voluntarily waive all constitutional rights heretofore waived....[and] to have aided in the preperation of [his] defense." As such, the evidence to uphold the juvenile court's finding regarding Reed's sophistication and maturity as legally insufficient.
*6 (10) Reed contends that the evidence adduced is insufficient to suuport the court's findings that "there is little, if any, prospect of adequate protection of the public, and likelihood of reasonable rehabilitation of [Reed] by use of procedures, services, and facilities currently avaiable to the juvenile court."
The State contends that the juvenile court did consider rehabilitation therefore, this claim should be denied. See State's response page 6. Thus, conceding that a juvenile court can properly find that the welfare of the community requires criminal proceedings because of the seriousness of the offense, the background of the individual, or both. However, a finding based on the seriousness of the offense under subsection (a) does not absolve the juvenile court's duty to consider the subsection (f) factors.
If, as the state is saying generally, the nature of the offense alone justified waiver, transfer would automaticallybe authorized in certain clases of "serious" crimes such as sexual assault and armed robbery with a deadly weapon, and the subsection (f) factors should be rendered superfluous. See R.E. M., 541 S.W. 2 d at 846 , Moon v. State, 410 S.W. 3 d 376 ; (11) Reed contends that the record shows that he has four mentioned infractions were one went to adjudication. There was no report provided by his probation officer or any testimony given during certification hearing.
Dr. Burns in his assessment stated, " No unusual somatic concerns was expressed. At least mild anxiety was present, although Jamal did not express it directly. Emotionally, he related adequately. Conceptually, he was organized. He expressed no quilt feelings and denied anything in the offense, He was not excessively tense and showed no unusual mannerisms or posturing. He exhibited no grandiosity or depressive mood. He was mildly depressed about being in the dentention facility. He was cooperative, not hostile, and not suspicious. He evidenced no hallucinatory behavior. His motor activity level was appropriate. Hw was basically very cooperative and friendly. His thinking was logical and appropriate with no bizzare thought content. His affect was generally appropriate.
After careful consideration by this court of all the evidence is insufficient to support the juvenile court's finding. As to the protection to the public Reed has one uviolent act of evading arrest of a police officer in which he was adjudicated with probation. it is hardly the sort of offense for which there is little prospect of adequate protection of the public and likelihood of rehabilitation by use of procedures, services, and facilities
*7
currently available to the juvenile court. Furthermore, there as stated earlier, that there is no probation report which offers any details as to Reed's time on probation. Since there was no testimony from Dr. Burns as to evidence of possible rehabilitation this court should conclude that the juvenile court erred in finding that there is no prospect of adequate protection of the public and the likelihood of reasonable rehabilitation of Reed by use of procedures, services, and facilities currently avaiable to the juvenile court is so great against the proponderance of the evidence as to be unjust. (12) Reed contends that he was never given a service of summons. The summons is directed to the juvenile and there is no record or petition that he personally recieved such summons at anytime. The district court lacked jurisdiction on the applicant to charge him with either crime because of the failure to follow juvenile statutes pertaining to (a) of the Family Code.
Family Code 53.06(a), states: "that the juvenile court shall direct issuance of a summons to; (1) the child named in the petition as do (a) which gives instructions on how the summons shall be handled. If any of these procedures are not taken properly the jurisdiction of the juvenile exclusively retains to the juvenile court and voids any process or procedure taken before to certify the juvenile as an adult as stated in .
If said pyrocedures are not followed and the juvenile is to recieve such summons personallythee whole procedure to certify him as an adult is indeeed nixed and invalid. Light v. State, 993 S.W. 2 d 740 (Tex.App.-Austin, 1999); In the Matter of H.R.A., 790 S.W.2d 102, 103-06 (Tex.App.-Beaumont 1990).
CONCLUSION
Because the juvenile court abused its discretion waiving its jurisdiction over Reed and certifying him as an adult, the district court lacked jurisdiction over this case. Therefore, this court is construed to vacate the district court's judgment and dismiss the case.

ADDITIONAL EVIDENCE: Collected at the Fort Worth Police Department from Atrice L. Oliver 2-23-94, 1155 hours by A. Watts:
Collected at the Font Worth Police Department from JamaI A. Reed 2-23-94, 1425 hours by A. Watts:
RESULTS OF EXAMINATION: The following items were extracted for DNA testing: K5 - Knov̄n blood sample from Atrice Oliver. K6 - Known blood sample from Jamal Reed. High Molecular Weight Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) was extracted from the above items and each restricted with the Restriction Enzyme RAE III. DNA profiles for Genetic Loci D2S44, D1S7, D10S28, D4S139 and D14S13 were generated for K5 and K6.
Based on these results, Jamal Reed is eliminated as the semen donor on the pillowcase (Q2. The DNA profiles of Atrice Oliver (K5) and the pillow case (Q2) match. Statistics were generated for Genetic Loci D2S44, D1S7, D10S28 and D4S139. The probability of selecting an unrelated individual having a DNA profile matching Atrice Oliver is 1 in 1.3 billion people in the Caucasian population; 1 in 63 million people in the AfricanAmerican population; and 1 in 310 million people in the Hispanic population.

RESULTS
DNA testing using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and the AmpFlSTR Identifiler Amplification Kit was performed on the indicated exhibit(s). The loci tested and the results obtained for each tested sample are listed in Table 1 (see attachment).
CONCLUSIONS
FR12-0034-01.01.2-EF
The partial DNA profile obtained from the epithelial fraction of the oral swabs from Wendi Lou Hagins is consistent with the DNA profile obtained for Wendi Lou Hagins.
FR12-0034-01.01.2-SF
The partial DNA profile obtained from the sperm fraction of the oral swabs from Wendi Lou Hagins is a mixture of at least two individuals, including at least one male. Wendi Lou Hagins, Jamal Reed and Atrice L. Oliver cannot be excluded as possible contributors of DNA to this mixture.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS
The approximate frequencies at nine loci in five North American populations of the combinations of all possible types included in the mixture reported for the sperm fraction of the oral swabs from Wendi Lou Hagins (01.01.2-SF) with respect to Jamal Reed, making no assumptions regarding the number of DNA sources, are as follows:
| POPULATION DATABASE | FREQUENCY | | :--: | :-- | | Black | 1 in 9.144 million unrelated individuals | | Caucasian | 1 in 41.28 million unrelated individuals | | Southwest Hispanic | 1 in 149.0 million unrelated individuals | | Southeast Hispanic | 1 in 2.197 million unrelated individuals | | General Asian | 1 in 326,700 unrelated individuals |
Note: Locus D19S433 is not used in the statistical analysis for the Southeast Hispanic and General Asian populations.
