Why is this important?

Mr. Hawes was wrongfully arrested and charged with a murder that occurred on a West Baltimore street on July 21, 1993. After Mr. Hawes' conviction at trial, he filed a petition under the Maryland Public Information Act to get the homicide file for the deceased. Mr. Hawes discovered that exculpatory evidence in nature (negated Mr. Hawes from guilt) was never disclosed to him/attorney during the trial,and it stated in pertinent part that "The eyewitness recollection of the event is simply not credible. She describes as only seeing the shooter's back. The State's Attorney office violated the law (Brady Violation) by failing to disclosed this police report that negated Mr. Hawes from guilt.
