Al Brown testified about his son and threatening calls to Houk and denied a boyfriend link citing lack of gunshot residue on his hands. He claimed ignorance of Houk's address and noted only children's footprints in the snow between the house and the school bus stop. State Superior Court reviewed the case and found the conviction plainly contrary to the evidence. Brown remains under court supervision until age 21 with semiannual status reviews.
