R. Gordon McDonald and Associates is dedicated to finding the truth in matters involving the death of human beings. We believe that society demands an impartial and comprehensive review of criminal cases in which the death penalty has been imposed upon the convicted person. Believing in this premise our agency offers a unique service to the legal community:

Complete Case Review Review of all police reports, forensic reports, trial transcripts and witness' statements considered in the trial and subsequent appeals.

Analysis of Investigation Procedures An analysis will be done of all police and forensic procedures done in the course of the criminal investigation to identify flaws, discrepancies or potential improprieties in the criminal investigation.

Corroboration and Verification of Witness Statements Credibility and truthfulness of witness statements will be analyzed and investigated.

Review and Analysis of Aggravating and Mitigating Circumstances A determination of whether any mitigating circumstances existed and were not presented and evaluation and cooberation of any aggravating circumstances presented.

Final Case Review and Analysis A final review of the entire case will include any recommended new or alternative forensic testing that can apply to the evidence, pursuit of new or previously undeveloped leads and a final review of any potential issues regarding the state of the evidence, the criminal investigation and standard of proof being met.
