Georgia man exonerated of murder charges after spending 20 years in prison
Fox News
A judge on Tuesday dismissed double murder charges against a Georgia man who spent 20 years in prison.
"It took a long time, but I never gave up," Perry said in a Monday statement. "I knew that eventually someone else would see the truth and I’m so grateful to Georgia Innocence Project and King & Spalding for bringing the truth to light. This indictment has been hanging over my head for over 20 years, and it’s such a relief to finally not have to worry about being accused of this awful thing." Police interviewed "hundreds" of suspects, including Perry, following the 1985 murders, but Perry only became a prime suspect after the Camden County sheriff promised former deputy Dale Bundy a job if he could solve the case, according to GIP.More Related News
