Introduced by: Benjamin J. Lambert III | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Claims; Beverly Anne Monroe. Provides relief for Beverly Anne Monroe who was incarcerated between 1992 and 2002. A panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit ruled that Ms. Monroe's 1992 trial was flawed because of the prosecution's failure to disclose exculpatory evidence and granted her a new trial. The Commonwealth's Attorney for Powhatan County decided not to retry Ms. Monroe. Under the bill, the Commonwealth will provide a lump-sum payment to Ms. Monroe of $400,000 to be paid by August 1, 2004, and $1,237,000 through an annuity to be paid in equal monthly payments for 20 years commencing on or before September 1, 2004.
