An alleged conversation between Justice Minister T.J. Burke and a University of New Brunswick law student concerning the wrongful conviction of Erin Michael Walsh is renewing calls for a full public inquiry into the 1975 case.
Joel Payne, a third-year UNB law student, said he heard the justice minister speak to students on March 17 at an event at which he was asked about the Walsh case and why the government hadn't cut a deal on financial compensation for the wrongful conviction.
Walsh has a civil case pending against the government seeking compensation.
After the presentation, according to an affidavit sworn by Payne in Fredericton on March 31, Payne attended a reception with Burke where he spoke about the Walsh case again. He said Burke urged him to look at the Walsh court file and told him that Walsh had been in Saint John at the time of the murder for a drug deal.
"The attorney general then added that Walsh had killed before or that he suspected that Walsh had killed before," Payne said in the affidavit.

he is now judge and jury
He has the power to just compensate Walsh and move on. I don't understand why he didn't just have a nice photo-op on the steps of the Legislature, invite Walsh and his wife, and present him with a cheque and apologize.
Now, it is clear they are just dragging his name through the mud in an attempt to hold out long enough so that Walsh dies and they don't have to pay him.
It is a clearcut conflict with respect to his role as Justice Minister. There are many precendents on this right across the country (and here in our province as well) where other Ministers have had to resign. As a Minister, he is not supposed to discuss his personal opinions on cases like this because he can alter the outcome of it.
He must resign.
I am personally aware of another very similar case involving the same prosecutor-turned-judge, and so I have little reason to doubt that this man helped to have Mr. Walsh wrongly convicted. Maybe instead of looking into Walsh's track record, T.J. Burke should look into the track records of his own prosecutors and appointed judges. We could also look into Mr. Burke's own criminal past, since I understand that he has been convicted of at least one offence. He is also arguably guilty of obstruction of justice, not just in the Walsh case, but in my own case, where he has refused to do anything about his own department effectively banning me from court in order to maintain my wrongful conviction for contempt of court. This is an issue of corruption and hypocrisy that is much larger than Mr. Walsh's almost certain wrongful conviction.
