Attorneys: Gps Clears Man Of 2009 Md. Shooting

[...] does the former head of the Department of Juvenile Services, which was responsible for the tracking device he was wearing. Lamont Davis is serving a life sentence for a crime he didn't commit. The shooting that landed Davis in prison happened around 4 p.m. on July 2, 2009 at the corner of South Pulaski and Wilhelm streets, a residential area of mostly two story row houses. Five-year-old Raven Wyatt was shot, and the image of her tiny pink flip-flops surrounded by crime tape helped fuel outrage. [...] Davis' ankle monitor, which he'd been ordered to wear as a result of a juvenile record that is confidential, told a different story: when the shooting happened, he was home. The system was accurately reporting times, and if he had any doubts about its reliability, the state wouldn't have renewed its contract for the tracking devices, he wrote in a letter supporting Davis. "For reasons that are still not entirely clear to me somehow Lamont Davis was nonetheless convicted of attempted murder and given a life sentence for crimes that I am confident he could not have committed," DeVore wrote. A Department of Juvenile Services expert on monitoring, Adrienne Simms, says photographic evidence showed Davis' bracelet had been securely attached to his leg, impossible to slip off.
