Phillips was exonerated of murder in 2018 after 45 years in prison.

So Phillips, 73, is selling some of his 400-plus watercolors that he painted in prison. (AP Photo/Carlos Osorio)

Wayne County prosecutors taking 2nd look at 1971 murder

By Associated Press Shares

Richard Phillips is seen outside a Wayne County jail, Thursday, Dec. 14, 2017 in Detroit after being released after 45 years in prison. Phillips was released while prosecutors appeal a decision that granted him a new trial in a 1971 murder. Phillips has long declared his innocence in the fatal shooting of Gregory Harris. He was convicted largely on the testimony of a trial witness who's now dead. Phillips' big break occurred in 2014 when the Innocence Clinic at University of Michigan law school learned that another man said Phillips had absolutely no role. (AP Photo/Ed White)

Michigan man free on bond after 45 years in prison

By ED WHITE - Associated Press Shares

In a photo provided by the Michigan Department of Corrections, Richard Phillips is shown. Phillips, imprisoned 45 years is on the cusp of freedom after another man said he had no role in a 1971 murder in Detroit. A judge last week threw out Phillips' conviction and ordered a new trial. It's not clear if prosecutors will take that step or drop the case. Phillips has declared his innocence for decades. He's been cleared based on the words of Richard Palombo, who was a co-defendant at the 1972 trial. Palombo admitted his role in the shooting during a parole board hearing in 2010, but he insisted that Phillips wasn't present. Four years later, University of Michigan law school learned about Palombo's testimony and successfully reopened the case. (Michigan Department of Corrections via AP)
