Daily News | A Bucks County man is on trial for the second time in a 2007 double murder
For fifteen years, Alfonso Sanchez has sat on death row, convicted of a double murder he insists he did not commit.But a prosecutorial mistake paved the way for a new trial, in which Sanchez has pleaded not guilty and insisted that the crime was the work of another man.
“Do people who are not guilty of crimes try to have witnesses against them murdered?” Lannetti asked.A Bucks County man appealing a murder conviction plotted to kill a witness, prosecutors say Sanchez shot Thomas in the head at point-blank range, along with Diaz, who owed him money for cocaine, prosecutors said.
Miranda and Martinez turned themselves in the day after the shooting. Sanchez eluded police for a week, but was eventually found hiding in a bathtub inside a house in Horsham, surrounded, Lanetti said, with hair dye, cash and newspaper clippings describing the search for him, “trophies of the carnage he inflicted.”
But Genovese cast doubt on the trustworthiness of the witnesses lined up to testify over the coming days, saying they “had reason to comport their version of the case with the commonwealth’s to get preferential treatment” in their own legal matters.
