Convicted child killer Christopher Clements is already serving a life sentence in the separate killing of another Tucson girl, 13-year-old Maribel Gonzalez.
Attorney General’s Tucson office disqualified from murder case
The Arizona Supreme Court has disqualified all the lawyers working at the Tucson office of the state attorney general from handling a new trial in a 21-year-old murder case.
In a unanimous decision Monday, the justices said there is reason to believe that Darren Irving Goldin could not get a fair trial because one of the lawyers at that office there had improper conversations with a court-appointed confidential intermediary. That lawyer, Richard Wintory, eventually left the attorney general’s office and was later suspended from the practice of law for 90 days.
