Legal snafu ends retrial for Randall Hall in Darby
A judge dismissed the remaining charges against Randall Hall 38, overturning his 1981 conviction for voluntary manslaughter in the 1980 shooting of Wanda Nicholson on Main Street Darby. The district attorney failed to move for retrial within 120 days after the Superior Court ruling, ending the case. Hall could be released from jail by Thursday as the judge considers a formal petition for release.
