Two Prisoners Ordered Released or Retried

In Richmond the Fourth Circuit ordered two convicts freed or retried after doubts arose over whether their confessions were voluntary. Herbert Smallwood of Maryland, serving life for murder, and Louis Moorer of New York, convicted of rape in South Carolina, had habeas pleas previously rejected. The majority found Smallwood's confession coerced. Moorer’s trial lacked options to test voluntariness of a statement. A third ruling upheld sending a murder case back to Richmond Circuit Court citing alleged racial discrimination claims by defense.
