           SUPPLEMENTAL EXHIBITS IN SUPPORT OF
      AMENDED APPLICATIONS FOR WRITS OF HABEAS CORPUS


TO THE HONORABLE JUDGES OF SAID COURT:

       NOW COMES the Applicant, BRAD MICHAEL CHILDERS, and submits

these supplemental exhibits in support of amended applications for writs of habeas

corpus and would show the following:


                                                                    December 23, 2016




Supplemental Exhibits in Support of Amended Applications for Writs of Habeas Corpus - Page 1
                                                 I.

        Applicant’s amended writ applications allege that the state withheld

exculpatory evidence of another person committing similar robberies in the same

geographical location and during the same time period that the robberies occurred that

Childers was convicted of. This person is Jonathan Clark. In connection with these

writ applications, Applicant’s counsel submitted an open records request to the Plano

Police Department for records concerning the three robberies which Applicant was

convicted of.

                                                II.

        The attached records from this open records request show the following:

        The following witnesses and victims from the three robberies which Applicant

was convicted of all stated that the person who committed these robberies had brown

eyes.

                                         Crissy Starkey

                                         Tara Ricklefs

                                          Sheela Singh

        Police reports and witness statements showing this are attached.

        Also, among the records produced by the Plano Police Department in this open

records production was a form entitled “Plano Police Department Supplemental

Warrant Information” and a form entitled “Collin County Criminal District Attorney


Supplemental Exhibits in Support of Amended Applications for Writs of Habeas Corpus - Page 2
Plano Police Department Case Report Form.” Both of these forms state that

Applicant, Brad Childers, has blue eyes.

       Other information before the court shows that Clark has brown eyes.

                                                III.

       The fact is that the description given by the victims and witnesses of the person

committing the robberies which Childers was convicted of better matches Clark than

Childers. This is additional evidence indicating that the fact that the Plano Police

were aware that Clark was committing similar robberies to the ones Childers was

charged with constitutes exculpatory evidence that should have been revealed to

Applicant’s counsel.

                                                  Respectfully submitted,

    During the course of investigation of this call, a second robbery
    came out under file #02-51555 located at 2100 Dallas Parkway
    at Parkwood Cleaners, which had a similar description of the
    suspect as this robbery with the exception of a different
    color of baseball cap and different color shirt.  There was
    also a third robbery under file #02-51565 at 5960 West Parker
    Road suite 224 at the General Nutrition Center giving another
    similar description as our suspect.

    I observed two cameras inside the front portion of the store
    at the Marble Slab Creamery but Mr. Jamal stated the
    cameras were activated but they were not being recorded
    even though there was a recorder hooked up to the camera
    system.

    Prior to my leaving the scene, I vralked up towards the north
    of the shopping center to check the trash cans for possibly
    the suspect dropping the white plastic bag or any other information
    that might be evidence in this crime.   Detective Marks and I
    made contact with the management at the Albertson's grocery
    store and viewed their tape of the cameras in -the parking lot
    attempting to see if we could locate the subject on tape. We
    were unable to do so.

    Officers entering into the crime scene included my back-up Officer
    Jackson #1230, PSO Eldridge P938, Detective Marks and myself.
    No other information was obtained regarding this aggravated
    robbery.

    CID follow-up is requested.    A case report has not been completed.

    On Monday 6/3/02 I, Officer Wolf-1452, along with Officer
    McCrary-1188, were working a 2-man until in patrol D-Sector
    assigned to beat 248 when we were dispatched to a robbery
    that had just occurred at the Parkwood Cleaners which is
    located at 2100 N Dallas Pkwy #112 inside the city limits
    of Plano, Collin County, TX.  The weather was sunny and
    clear. Officer Mccrary dropped this officer off at the
    Parkwood Cleaners to speak with the reporting party and
    witness while he continued to drive the area searching
    for the suspect.

    Officer McCrary-1188 spoke with employees at the Super
    Target located at Park and Parkwood and observed them to
    have a parking lot video camera which does tape the entire
    parking lot. While at the scene I, Officer Wolf-1452,
    spoke with reporting party Tara Lea Ricklefs (W/F
    who was v;rorking as the customer service/ cashier for the
    Parkwood Cleaners located at 2100 N Dallas Pkwy, suite 112.
    Ms. Ricklefs states that, "About 1:25 man, 5 1 10 11 -5 1 11", white
    male, about 22-26 years old, came in asking for job informa-
    tion.   I explained the position available, then when I asked                    I
                                                                                     I
    for his name and phone number he lifted his shirt which was
    a red shirt with a white shirt under it, blue jeans, red
    cap, brown hair, short, 160-170 pounds, brown trim moustache,
                                                                                     1.
    brown eyes.    After he lifted his shirt, pulled black gun,
    automatic, and told me this was a robbery, stay right where
    I was and open the register, now don 1 t move.   H'e grabbed
    the cash and the drawer and empty it, grabbed a laundry
    bag which he put the cash in and went out the front door."

    Ms. Ricklefs provided a voluntary written statement which
    is attached to th.is report for all intents and purposes.
    Ms. Ricklefs was obviously shaken, very nervous and panicked
    and appeared near tears. Ms. Ricklefs .initially had trouble
    speaking with this officer due to her apparent fear and
    panic at the just-occurred robbery. Ms. Ricklefs walked me
    through the suspect's entrance into the cleaners, through
    the right hand door of the double doors to the counter where
    he spoke with Ms. Ricklefs for several minutes about job
    information before finally coming around the right side of
    the desk to the cash register where he then raised his shirt
    and pulled a black automatic handgun from the front of his
    waist with his right hand and pointed it at her abdomen/thigh
    area while informing her that this was a robbery.   Ms. Ricklefs
    stated that the suspect then saw witness Mary Ann Young pull
    into the front of the cleaners and approach the store',. at

    which point he left the store walking normally northbound
    into the shopping center.

    I then spoke with witness Mary An.n Young (W/F            1 who

    stated, "I pulled up to Parkwood Cleaners to drop off dry
    cleaning and a man was leaving the cleaners on foot. He had
    a black bag in hand and was walking north on the sidewalk.
    He was approximately 5'11 n, li'J/M, early to mid 20' s in age,
    dark brown hair, clean cut, wearing a white shirt, jeans and
    red cap. As I entered the cleaners he was approxirnately 10
    feet down the walkv-1ay."

    Ms. Young then told me that Ms. Ricklefs informed her of the
    robbery at which point, she ran back outside with her cell
    phone to call 911.  She no longer observed the W/M suspect she
    had seen leaving the store, however, she did see a maroon unknown
    make and model vehicle driving through the parking lot. (It is
    unknown if this vehicle has any relevance to the robbery.)

    Ms. Young provided a voluntary written statement which is attached
    to this report for intents and purposes.    CID and ID were called
    to the scene. After ensuring the crime scene was secure, I
                                                                                       I
    walked northbound through the inirnediate shopping area and spoke
    with the businesses north of Parkwood Cleaners to the corner of                    I'
    their building.  I was unable to locate any cameras or other
    witnesses to this crime.

    ID tech, J. Rhinebarber arrived to process the scene, however,
    only the front door used by the suspect had any retrievable
    prints.  Detective DeLeon arrived to the scene and interviewed
    the reporting party, witness and victim.  Before leaving the
    Parkwood cleaners, I was advised by the owner, victim, Green,
    that per the cash register tape the register was opened at 1319
    hours and $326.19 in cash was taken from the drawer.

    No further information is available at this time. A case report
    was not completed by this officer due to lack of suspect infor1nation.

    CID follow up requested.
