Mickelsen discovered several issues with Vasquez’s conviction. He mentioned that the U.S. Attorney Jeff Haag failed to introduce the jury to the man who bribed him, Richard Wells, the multi-millionaire public safety radio dealer from San Antonio who gave Vasquez $178,000 so Vasquez would convince the City Council of San Angelo to spend $5.7 million upgrading Wells’ company’s installation of Harris radios in 2014.
