For more than two decades, Anthony Wright has insisted that he did not rape and kill 77-year-old Louise Talley in Nicetown. He was working construction at the time of her death, he has said, adding that his confession came only after coercion from police, who he says threatened him while he was handcuffed to a chair. And the bloodstained clothes that police removed from his house? Not his either, he has maintained. He has made these claims from behind bars, where he is serving a life sentence for the 1991 slaying. DNA testing sophisticated enough to exonerate him was not available in 1993, when a jury found him guilty, but it is now. And so for nine years his attorneys have pushed to see if advances in technology would support his case. The results of those tests are back. They show it was someone else's DNA found in bodily fluids taken from the victim, say his attorneys, with the Innocence Project at Yeshiva University's Benjamin N. Cardozo Law School. That DNA, the attorneys say in court pleadings, belonged to a career criminal and crack addict named Ronnie Byrd, who died early last year in South Carolina. The bloodstained clothes, they … Continue reading →

WEDNESDAY, Sept. 17, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- A blood test that measures DNA from a prostate cancer tumor could provide doctors with a better assessment of the state of a man's disease, a new study suggests. If used routinely, this blood test could reveal when treatment for advanced prostate cancer stops working and actually begins promoting tumor growth, the researchers suggested. "Our study showed that a steroid treatment given to patients with advanced prostate cancer and often initially very effective started to activate harmful mutations and coincided with the cancer starting to grow again," study leader Dr. Gerhardt Attard, from the Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) in London, explained in an ICR news release. "In the future, we hope to routinely monitor genetic mutations in patients with advanced disease using just a blood test -- enabling us to stop treatments when they become disease drivers and select the next best treatment option. We need to confirm these findings in larger numbers of patients, but using these types of blood tests could allow true personalization of treatment for prostate cancer patients, based on the cancer mutations we detect," he explained. Using a blood test to measure circulating tumor DNA levels is … Continue reading →

The Philadelphia District Attorney's office announced Friday that it has agreed to a new trial for Anthony Wright, now serving life in prison for the 1991 rape and murder of a 77-year-old Nicetown woman. "We are committed in the District Attorney's office to giving everyone a fair trial," said Assistant District Attorney Mark Gilson, a veteran homicide prosecutor who in April was named head of the office's new Conviction Review Unit. Gilson said new DNA analysis techniques, which show that Wright's DNA was not on the body of Louise Talley, were "not available when we tried the case in 1993. We want a new trial where this will be considered with all the other evidence that we believe still proves this defendant murdered Louise Talley." The latest DNA tests on fluids found in Talley's body has been linked to a career criminal and crack addict named Ronnie Byrd, who died early last year in South Carolina. Gilson, however, said the new DNA evidence only proves that Wright did not rape Talley and did not act alone: "It doesn't exclude him as the murderer."
