After being behind bars for more than 40 years, a man convicted of killing a police officer is a free man. Marshall “Eddie” Conway–a former member of the Black Panther party–was released from prison Tuesday. Civil rights activists say it’s a big win but others are upset that he’s walking free.
Conway was convicted of killing a Baltimore City police officer in 1970 but civil rights activists say he didn’t get a fair trial.
For the first time in more than 40 years, Marshall “Eddie” Conway walks free.
“It just shows you that things can come right after a wrong,” said Baltimore NAACP President Tessa Hill-Aston.
Conway was convicted of the 1970 murder of Baltimore City police officer Donald Sager. Sager and his partner were ambushed by three gunmen while responding to a domestic disturbance call in West Baltimore.
Conway was a leader in the Black Panther Party, a controversial militant organization. He’s always claimed he was framed for the crime.
The NAACP has fought for his release.
