Here’s the current list of every story I’ve written about Patrick “Tate” Adamiak, who is serving 20 years in prison for crimes he never committed, which were filed against him by the ATF.
There are 30 stories total, which should tell you all you need to know about this case.
We will keep investigating Adamiak’s plight until the government takes action. We will keep this list active and up to date until he’s freed.
Many thanks to all who have asked for this.
