The New York Review of Books - 4/25/02 The Torturers Among Us - By William F. Schulz - http://www.nybooks.com/articles/15289 from Lynne Moss-Sharmann - Escaped convict, 70, done running after 31 years Larry Oakes Star Tribune 5/31/02 "But in 1970, the stepdaughter, then 17 years old, recanted, telling a judge she made up the rape allegations to get even with Severs for beating her and to punish her parents for fighting. "I didn't think he'd go to the penitentiary," she said, according to newspaper reports. Instead of vacating the conviction or ordering a new trial, Judge Charles Owens found that her recantation was a lie and had her charged with perjury. He said her new testimony didn't fit other evidence that supported her original testimony. On Thursday, Sharon Severs said that the recantation was indeed false and that she made it because she wanted to get married. She was legally too young, and her mother promised to give the required parental permission only if she recanted. http://www.startribune.com/ <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
