a man of Florida (USA) who had the annulment of a conviction you received for a homicide which you insist is innocenthas turned himself in to the authorities after having exhausted his legal remedies.

Crosley Greencondemned by 1989 murder of 22-year-old Charles Flynnturned himself in to the Florida Department of Corrections on Monday after a federal court in the Middle District of this state ordered his return to prison to continue his life sentence.

That court’s decision comes after a federal appeals court reversed the 2018 decision from a federal court in Orlando, which ordered a new trial or that Green be released.

The Orlando court concluded that for this case occurred in Titusvillein the center of the state, Green had been wrongly convicted and that his constitutional rights had been violatedas reported by his legal team, the law firm Crowell & Moring.

The magistrate found that Brevard County prosecutors withheld information related to the suspicions of police officers who had concluded that it was the victim’s ex-girlfriend who committed the crime.

Green, who was imprisoned 32 years, 19 of them on “death row”, He was released from prison in April 2021 and placed under house arrest while the appeal process was ongoing.

During these two years, Green “has had a full-time job, has become part of a church community and has spent time with family, including meeting his grandchildren for the first time,” his legal team said, according to the report. Orlando’s local News 6 channel.

The federal court noted in its decision that the evidence in question was not material to this case.

“They refused to look at herthey refused to investigate that possibility,” said Jeane Thomas, an attorney with Green’s legal team, which in 2009 managed to have the death penalty recommended by an all-white jury changed to life in prison.

Green’s lawyers later sent an appeal to the US Supreme Courtwhich earlier this year rejected it and dismissed hearing the case.

The defense qualifies this process as an example of the racial prejudice inside the American justice system.
