Attorney General Mark Herring supports petition to overturn a Waverly man’s conviction

Two Waverly men could be one step closer to walking out of prison, after Virginia’s Attorney General Mark Herring joined in a petition asking that a Virginia court overturn the conviction of at least one of the men in the case.

Terrence Richardson and Ferrone Claiborne have been locked for more than 20 years for a crime they say they didn’t commit. In court documents AG Herring writes, “The Commonwealth submits that Mr. Richardson should be granted a writ of actual innocence.”
