  • New Trial Frees Stuart in Milford Sex Murder
    Manchester — A City of Village Charm Saturday, Dec. 13,1986 30 Cents NEW TRIAL FREES STUART IN MILFORD SEX MURDER DERBY (AP) — A 35-year-old man was set free from prison for the first time in more than four years Friday after he was found innocent in his second triai on charges that he raped and murdered a 5-year-oId giri. “ I can’t describe it. I ’m speechiess,” said the defendant, Daniel Stuart of Milford, after the Superior Court jury returned its verdict following almost two days of deliberations. “ I haven’t had Christmas in a while. Christmas is just another day in jail.” Stuart was convicted in 1983 of felony murder in the June 21, 1982 sexual assault and beating death of Constance Roberts of Milford, whose body was found behind a school. Stuart won a new trial because a man who committed suicide while the jury was deliberating in Stuart’s first trial left notes in which he apologized for raping and murdering an unnamed young girl about the same time Roberts was killed. Former Superior Court Judge Alvin G. Rottman ruled last year that the suicide notes of Joseph Salamone were new evidence that could persuade a jury that Stuart was innocent. ’The notes were never introduced os evidence in Stuart’s second trial, however. Judge Hugh C. Curran ruled earlier this week that they were inadmissible. ” I think this proves the system does work,” Stuart’s attorney, Robert Casale, said Friday. State’s Attorney Michael Dearington left court immediately after the verdict. He was not at home Friday evening and couldn’t be reached for comment.
