Philly man freed after 25 years on death row is shot dead at funeral

[NationalMatch]

Williams was convicted of six murders, including one triple murder in 1989, but freed after almost 30 years in prison when his final murder charge was tossed because evidence of prosecutorial misconduct came to light.

Williams was part of a funeral procession for formerly incarcerated friend Tyree Little in Philadelphia, his friends told the Philadelphia Inquirer. As he stepped out of his car on the 3000 block of Lehigh Avenue at around 2.20pm, he was shot once in the head.

Police rushed him to Temple University Hospital but he was pronounced dead less than half an hour later. Police are yet to arrest anyone for the murder and it is not yet clear why Williams was a target.

He had a multi million dollar law suit against the city he was likely to win.

Just because he was freed for procedural misconduct at the trail doesn't mean he didn't murder someone as charged.
