Farmer Challenges Blood Evidence Warrant | Green Bay News

Scott Farmer, sentenced to 37.5 years for a deadly wrong-way crash, is fighting to withdraw his no contest plea, arguing his blood evidence—critical to the conviction—was obtained illegally. His new lawyers claim the search warrant was fatally flawed: a judge ordered it over the phone, but never signed it, and no timestamp was recorded, making the blood draw essentially warrantless. They blame his prior attorney for failing to challenge this, saying the error prejudiced his case. With prosecutors silent and no hearing date set, Farmer’s push for a new trial hinges on whether the court will toss out the tainted evidence and undo his conviction.
