Inmate Prevails in Virginia Death‑Row Case
A death-row inmate, Earl Washington Jr., won a $2.25 million verdict after a federal jury found that a former state police agent fabricated evidence. Taxpayers have paid $532,888 in legal fees to the Wilmore estate, with further costs likely as the estate pursues a new trial while Washington’s lawyers may be paid by the state. The agent Curtis Reese Wilmore died in 1994. Washington confessed to the 1982 slaying.
