Appeals panel orders slaying case back to state court

Philadelphia AP A woman freed in April on a federal ruling that overturned her 1993 murder conviction must return to state court. Lisa Lambert, sentenced to life for slaying 16-year-old Laurie Shaw, was freed after Judge Stewart Dalzell found perjury and suppressed evidence. The 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Lambert failed to exhaust state appeals, nullifying Dalzell's decision and sending the case back for state proceedings.
