Disabled man may be released from Connecticut prison after court ruling

By Richard Weizel MILFORD, Conn. (Reuters) - A disabled man who has spent a quarter century in prison for rape and murder is expected to be released on Friday after Connecticut's highest court questioned his confession and ruled he had been deprived of a fair trial. The state Supreme Court last month ruled that his admission was extracted under duress and that he was deprived of a fair trial because prosecutors failed to disclose evidence that supported his alibi.
