Wrong 6 Marries Prosecution Witness, Is Acquitted
A 22 year old man, Craig Jackson, was acquitted of killing Atlantic City Patrolman John Burke after a judge ruled the state failed to connect him to the crime.

Jackson remains jailed on an armed robbery case and James Cherry, 23, is indicted but missing. Public safety chief Marion Floriani blasted the verdict, criticizing the marriage arrangement and clergy involvement.
