VU: Paterson Man Again Convicted Of Murdering Dad Of 6 Who Planned To Open New Restaurant
A Paterson man was convicted of murder for the second time in the shooting death of a city man in 2015. Jurors in Paterson originally convicted Charles Grant four years ago of gunning down Isaac "Blaze" Tucker, a 40-year-old father of six, after they’d walked a few blocks together from a city liquor store. Grant was serving a life sentence for the killing when a state appeals court overturned the verdict -- ruling that certain evidence shouldn't have been presented at his trial -- and sent the case back to Paterson earlier this year. Jurors this time deliberated for roughly a day and a ha…

Appeals Court Orders New Trial For Paterson Man Convicted Of Gunning Down Dad Of Six
A Paterson man’s murder conviction was overturned by an appeals court that ruled that certain evidence shouldn't have been presented at his trial. Charles M. Grant, 37, has been serving a life sentence for the shooting death more than three years earlier of Isaac "Blaze" Tucker, a 40-year-old father of six. Grant had eluded authorities for more than 2½ years after the February 2015 killing before U.S. Marshals tracked him nearly 150 miles to a small northeast Maryland town. No motive was established and no eyewitnesses were presented during his five-week murder trial in Superior Court in P…

A convicted felon serving federal prison time for a string of armed robberies in Connecticut has been indicted, again -- this time in a drunken-driving crash that killed a Rowan University senior nine years ago, NJ Advance Media reported. The DWI case has taken many twists and turns: Derrick D. Gilliam, 35, won an appeal of his homicide conviction last January on the grounds that police took an unwarranted draw of his blood at the hospital after the fatal crash, the outlet said. Matthew Uhl, 22, of Little Egg Harbor, was just two weeks away from college graduation when he was allegedly stru…

Imprisoned Gunman Who Killed Wife, Good Samaritan At Clifton Church Wants New Trial
A convict who's 10 years into serving two life sentences for shooting and killing his wife and a congregant at a Clifton church wants New Jersey's highest court to overturn his conviction. Joseph "Sanish" Pallipurath, 40, argues in an appeal to the state Supreme Court that his attorney should have mounted an insanity defense during his trial in Superior Court in Paterson in 2011. Reshma James, 24, had been trying to flee an abusive arranged marriage in India that continued after Pallipurath brought her back with him to California, prosecutors said at the time. James obtained a r…
