Iowa teen’s 30 year robbery sentence vacated for resentencing
The Iowa Court of Appeals ruled that juvenile factors were overlooked in Jose Leonardo Jordan Murcia’s case. The 22 year old from Iowa City, convicted at 17 for robbing a western wear store, will return to district court for resentencing as the court considered only the mandatory minimum. A letter from Murcia in court cited family illness, work attempts, remorse, and efforts toward education.
