Waiting for the federal court to weigh in on Crosley Green
In May, "48 Hours" reported on the case of Crosley Green, a man serving life in a Florida prison for the 1989 murder of 22-year-old Chip Flynn. Flynn had been found fatally wounded in a remote citrus grove after his ex-girlfriend, Kim Hallock, told police that she and Flynn had been kidnapped by a black man and she managed to escape. After Hallock identified Green in a questionable photo lineup, Green was convicted by an all-white jury.
"48 Hours" reported the serious flaws in the case and new evidence pointing to Green's innocence. He is now waiting to see if a federal court will take on his case.
