teenage boy charged with murder of 4 people released after the real killer confessed

A judge on Tuesday threw out the murder
convictions of Davontae Sanford who pleaded
guilty to killing four people at age 14, a case
which a lot of people had doubted for years
especially after a professional hit man stepped
forward and took responsibility for the murders
at a drug den.
Judge Brian Sullivan acted at the request of the
Wayne County prosecutor's office and lawyers
for , Sanford who's now 23.
Sanford was arrested and convicted for murder
in the 2007 fatal shootings of four people at a
Detroit house. He pleaded guilty to second-
degree murder at age 15, because he was trying
to please the Police. But after he got arrested,
he withdrew his confession but it was already
too late. Since his arrest, he had been trying to
undo that plea for years, especially after hit
man Vincent Smothers confessed to the
murders.
Vincent Smothers insists that he killed the four
people in a drug house and that Sanford had no
role in it.
Judge Sullivan said Sanford who is still in a
prison in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, will be
released on bond and all charges against him
will eventually be dropped.
The agreement signed by prosecutors says the
state police found major problems in the work
of a Detroit police official who investigated
Sanford after the four homicides.
Smothers is in prison after pleading guilty to
eight other murders.
