Mistrial Declared in Thompson Murder Case in Iowa City
Charles Thompson’s first degree murder trial ended without a verdict after a videotaped police interview segment was improperly shown. Judge Sean McPartland declared the mistrial as defense attorney Tyler Johnston urged vindication, noting no evidence of Thompson’s involvement. The case concerns landlord John Versyot’s October 8, 2009, slaying at Broadway Condominiums.
