While Carmon"finally feel[s] validated," he noted that his"name’s been tarnished" and that he is"just working, trying to piece the pieces of [his] life back together."who served 28 years in prison for a 1994 shooting that killed a baby, paralyzed her grandmother and shocked a community saw the charges against him dismissed Tuesday by a judge, who previously ruled he had been wrongly convicted due to missteps by police and prosecutors.
The crime stunned many in New Haven and drew statewide attention to the problem of urban gun violence. A gunman fired more than a dozen shots from a street into an apartment,Shirley Troutman, Danielle's mother and Charlene Troutman's daughter, said she was upset at the case's dismissal and still believes Carmon is the killer. Her mother died in 2008.
"Obviously, when you spend 28 years in prison for something you didn’t do and your constitutional rights were violated, you should be compensated in some way and so we intend to pursue some kind of compensation," said his lawyer, Doug Lieb. A jury convicted Carmon based on eyewitness and ballistics expert testimony that was later found to be flawed. And prosecutors presented no evidence of a motive for Carmon.
