Wilcox to Appeal Branch Murder Trial Reversal
Rensselaer County prosecutor Charles Wilcox plans to appeal after the Appellate Division overturned the 1976 murder and robbery convictions of Vernon and Vraden Branch in the shooting death of Robert Butler. An order for a new trial will trigger further appeals to the Appellate Division and possibly the New York Court of Appeals. If unsuccessful, the twins may face retrial in spring 1978.
