Former Woodlyn firefighters cleared of arson charges
Three Woodlyn volunteers including ex chief Garvin were found not guilty of conspiracy and causing a brush fire on March 17 1991. Jurors found testimony by two Commonwealth witnesses inconsistent and defense arguments persuasive. The acquitted men wiped tears as they left court and officials said the verdict removes stigma despite ongoing arson-related matters for another suspect Joe Mittleman will decide next week on continuing to trial.
