PHILADEPHIA (AP) - A Philadelphia judge has agreed to allow prosecutors to drop charges against a man who served eight years in prison in a 2012 murder before his conviction was tossed out earlier this year.
The Philadelphia Inquirer reports, however, that the action by Common Pleas Court Judge Rose Marie DeFino-Natasi followed an unusually contentious hearing Friday in which the judge didn’t extend an apology to 31-year-old Jahmir Harris and also didn’t express clear support for the view that he was innocent.
