                PETITION FOR WRIT OF PROHIBITION
                  _________________________________

      Pruett’s petition states that no physical evidence connects Pruett to the

crime. Petition at 7. In its response, the SPU states that Officer Nagle’s blood was

found in the gym. State’s Response at 15. In fact, that assertion is untrue. The

pants and towel found in the gym area contained Pruett’s blood, not Nagle’s blood.

Trial Tr. vol. 42: 346-47, 350. None of Officer Nagle’s blood was found in the

gym, nor was any found on any item belonging to Mr. Pruett.
    Respectfully Submitted,
