New evidence suggests that New Haven police have not disclosed records about an alleged wrongful conviction, and that Gaylord Salters may have been imprisoned for 20 years for a shooting he did not commit.
Darcus Henry is a childhood friend of Salters who was wrongfully convicted in 1996. Henry was freed in 2013 after his case was overturned. He alleges corrupted police and prosecutors have long imprisoned innocent people in New Haven.
“The same state’s attorney’s office did the same thing to me that they did to Gaylord Salters. I was falsely accused of a crime, sent to prison. I spent like 15 years in prison for a crime I didn’t commit. They held exculpatory evidence away from us. I understand first-hand what he’s going through, Henry said.

The runway lengthens, a new terminal and garage get built, and the name “New Haven” remains under newly released terms of a proposed 43-year lease between the city and Tweed’s airport authority.
The deal includes lifting of a weight limit on local aircraft and the teeing up of a long-term sub-lease with a deep-pocketed private investor.
Those terms, and many more, were revealed Tuesday in a new proposed amended and restated lease and operating agreement between the city and the Tweed New Haven Airport Authority and a proposed ordinance amendment.
