Fight continues despite commuted sentence for former cop CHICAGO (FinalCall) - When Howard Morgan turns 64 on February 1, for the first time in nearly a decade, he will celebrate at home with his wife Rosalind, family and friends. Mr. Morgan was released from prison after outgoing Illinois Governor Pat Quinn commuted his 40-year sentence.

Just four days after the governor’s decision, attorneys Benjamin Crump and Juan Thomas, Bishop Connie Bansa, Nation of Islam official Leonard F. Muhammad and WVON 1690AM radio personality Cliff Kelley, Mr. and Mrs. Morgan participated in a Jan. 16 press conference at Church of the Living God. They thanked Gov. Quinn and those who have supported their cause in a program broadcast live by WVON-AM, the city’s Black talk radio station. Read more @ finalcall/artman/publish/National_News_2/article_102090.shtml
