Brief hearing on commutation for two Berks murderers
International News Service reports a brief hearing before the Pennsylvania board of pardons in Harrisburg on May 20 for Seamorn Crocker and Irvin Grinage, convicted of first degree murder in Berks county. The request to commute their death sentences to life imprisonment was opposed by Berks District Attorney David P. Fi anger. Defense attorneys Steloher and Price argued neither man fired the fatal shot, citing their roles as reluctant followers of Robert Brue, whose appeal is pending before the state supreme court. The hearing ended abruptly, possibly awaiting Brue’s supreme court decision so all three cases may be considered together.
