Judge overturns murder conviction in officer's death
U S District Judge Warren Urbom overturned the first degree murder conviction of David L. Rice of Omaha for the 1970 booby trap bombing that killed Omaha police officer Larry Minard. The ruling voided use of dynamite particles from an illegal search and requires new trial or release. The Nebraska Supreme Court had upheld the conviction in 1972. Minard died Aug 17, 1970, after investigating a yacht house when the blast occurred. The state has 9 days to appeal to the Eighth Circuit.
