Relatives attack Ryan over clemency in DuPage murders
In Chicago testimony before the Prisoner Review Board, relatives of Debra Evans criticized Gov. George Ryan for considering commutation of death sentences for two killers. The Evans case, described as the most gruesome in DuPage history, involved a 1995 murder in which Evans was shot and a baby removed from her womb. Prosecutors cited damning evidence against Jacqueline Williams and Fedell Caffey as jurors faced potential racism and defense arguments emerged amid Ryan's death-penalty reassessment and possible blanket clemency.
