After 22 Years , Wrongfully Convicted Man to Be Freed
Anthony Capozzi is now 50 years old. He's been in prison for 22 years for a rape he didn't commit. DNA has proved his innocence and he is expected to be freed within two weeks.
DNA evidence at the time of Capozzi’s trial wasn’t even admissible in the courts, and D’Agostino had to contend with the testimony of three women who identified Capozzi as their assailant.
“Maybe one’s wrong, maybe two are wrong, but jurors sit there and say how can three people possibly be wrong?” he said. “They were all so positive it was him.”
The D.A. agrees Capozzi was wrongfully convicted.
Erie County District Attorney Frank J. Clark is expected to present Troutman DNA test results from the county’s crime lab. Those tests show that DNA in slides taken from the rape victims matches that of the man charged as the Bike Path Killer, Altemio Sanchez.
