Mid-Hudson News reports that a Dutchess County jury deliberated for less than an hour on June 22 and found Laquann Crimm, a 31-year-old convicted felon, innocent of assaulting a corrections officer during an incident at Green Haven Correctional Facility in 2021. Several corrections officers claimed Crimm stabbed another inmate and then punched the officer. Dutchess County Public Defender’s Office Bureau Chief Kara Gerry said, “The corrections officers’ stories do not add up,” and claimed that the involved officers were part of a “cover-up.” Gerry told Mid-Hudson News, “We are gratified that the jury listened to all of the evidence, kept an open mind, and found that no one is above the law.” Read more about this story at Mid-Hudson News.
