A Winston-Salem man is asking an appellate court to overturn his murder conviction, saying there is clear evidence that a prosecutor dismissed two Black jurors because of their race. The evidence? The prosecutor admitted it in court when challenged.
And an appellate court in 1998 found that the prosecutor illegally used race in jury selection. But the manâs conviction was not overturned because of a narrow interpretation of a U.S. Supreme Court decision prohibiting race discrimination in jury selection, the manâs attorney said. Race had to be the sole reason a juror was removed for his conviction to be overturned, but that rule has since changed, the attorney said. Now, it just has to be a significant factor.
Lige Bobby Boswell, a convicted scam artist/paving contractor with a particularâand provenâpenchant for preying on vulnerable seniors, has seen this movie before.
He knows how it ends, and yet according to court records spread over more than 10 years across the length and breadth of North Carolina, he continues to follow the same plot line.
Boswell picks out a mark, pitches a too-good-to-be-true deal and then proceeds to do a substandard paving job with crummy materials at an inflated price.
Boswell, of Walnut Cove, had a court date Tuesday in Gaston County to answer for three felony charges connected to a similar dealâobtaining property by false pretenses, conspiracy to obtain property by false pretenses and exploitation of the elderly/handicapped. Two more court dates are slated for later this month, one in Forsyth County and another in Stokes, related to ⦠paving scams.
