As quoted in the Boston Herald, Attorney Veronica White of White & Associates P.C. said “you cannot incarcerate people based on tampered evidence. If the state is going to incarcerate people, they have to do it in a manner that comports with the Constitution of the United States.”

Attorney White was being interviewed about her client Marcus Pixley. According to the Boston Herald article, Attorney White had successfully argued for a reduction in Pixley’s bail based on “the involvement of accused rogue chemist Annie Dookhan in the testing of drug samples in his case.”

Attorney White was also featured in a WBZ-TV report about Governor Deval Patrick’s response to the on-going scandal involving Annie Dookhan and the Jamaica Plain Drug Lab:

In today’s front page article in the Boston Globe Attorney Veronica White of White & Associates P.C. is featured as saying the following:

“When the government puts someone in an 8-by-7-foot cell and tells them when they will sleep and eat and wake up, it’s the most intrusive thing you can do to somebody. All of these cases that come out of that lab are presumptively tainted. You can’t limit everything to Annie Dookhan. There are other people who should be held accountable.”

Attorney White is defending Marcus Pixley who is accused of distributing cocaine to an undercover officer, possession with intent to distribute cocaine and resisting arrest. The cocaine that he was charged with was tested by Annie Dookhan as the primary chemist in the Hinton State Laboratory in Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts. Ms. Dookhan is accused of altering test results and mishandling evidence that came out of the same lab.

Attorney White has filed a motion to dismiss the indictments with prejudice and is also requesting the Suffolk Superior Court issue a subpoena to the State Police and the Department of Public Health ordering them to provide her with all investigative reports regarding Annie Dookan and the Hinton State laboratory.

As quoted in the Boston Globe Attorney Veronica White of White & Associates P.C. said “I can only hope that the Legislature will come to realize that more safeguards must be put in place to protect defendants from wrongful prosecutions like this one, so that people like Anthony Powell do not have to wait 12 years for justice.”

In the case of Commonwealth vs Jerry Dixon, Veronica White of White & Associates represents Mr. Dixon who has been indicted for allegedly raping three victims in the mid 1980’s. The preliminary indictments of two of these victims were based solely on the DNA profile of the suspect.

Ms White filed a motion to dismiss these indictments because the statute of limitations had expired before the commencement of an effective prosecution against her client. In her appearance before the Supreme Judicial Court, Ms. White argued that the District Attorney couldn’t serve a person’s DNA profile to stop the clock from running out on the Statute of Limitations.

The following video is Ms White’s argument before the highest court in Massachusetts on October 7, 2010.
