According to his attorney, Joseph Ozment spent three years living and working at the Mississippi governor mansion.
"He was the resident cook so he made breakfast lunch and dinner,” said Robert Moxley is one of two Wyoming attorneys representing Ozment.
They are fighting to make sure he doesn't go back to prison.
"We will defend his freedom come hell or high water."
Ozment was set free based on a pardon from former governor Barbour for the 1992 murder of a man in DeSoto county store robbery that some called a cold-bloodied killing.
"I've met people who are cold blooded killers…Joseph Ozment is not one."
Ozment was released just last month. We wanted to know how he can afford to pay two attorneys.
"Can you say it's not governor Barbour? I can't say it is or it isn't I’m not going to discuss it," Moxley said in a phone inter
View Friday.
Moxley has no trouble discussing what he says is Ozment's redemption.
He was making himself ready to be a productive citizen once he got his freedom, he said.
But Ozment's freedom is at risk, leaving his planned wedding next month in limbo.
