Conviction Review Unit Exonerates Wrongfully Convicted Man in LA
Los Angeles County District Attorney Jackie Lacey announced the release from prison of Derrick Harris, a Los Angeles man wrongfully convicted of robbery, illegally possessing a firearm and violating a gang injunction. At a hearing Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge William C. Ryan vacated Harris’ conviction, permanently released him from prison, dismissed his case with prejudice and found him factually innocent of the crimes for which he was convicted. The District Attorney’s Office not only lost faith in his conviction but also was convinced Harris is, in fact, innocent of the crimes. Harris was convicted of the July 1, 2013, armed robbery of a customer at a fast-food restaurant in Watts. At trial, the victim identified
Harris as one of the two men who pointed a handgun at him and took his gold chain necklace. Harris was convicted in case TA129185 of one count of second-degree robbery, one count of possession of a firearm by a felon and one count of disobeying a court order. He was sentenced to 15 years in state prison. Harris, however, remained resolute in his innocence. On May 8, 2020, the California Innocence Project submitted a claim of factual innocence to the District Attorney’s Conviction Review Unit on behalf of Harris. That claim was based on new evidence: A written statement from the second suspect in the case disclosing that Harris did not commit the robbery with him.
