Boone County prosecutors initially charged the roommate, Harry Moore, with second-degree murder before he came forward with the additional information. Wright was then charged in the crime on Nov. 26, 1985. It's possible he didn't even know there was a warrant. The kind of stuff like I quoted scares me at times. They consider him a suspect because ANOTHER suspect implicated him, BEFORE they dropped the charges against him. |
