Muti will be celebrating the one year anniversary of his release which was made possible through the efforts of the Making An Exoneree program. Their efforts helped Muti build a parole application, which was ultimately granted. Muti was released in June 2023.
Muti spent 42 years in prison despite two of his co-defendants recanting their testimony. These men claim that the Philadelphia Homicide Unit threatened and coerced them into lying to convict Muti while they were juveniles.
Anna Salvatore, Mikayla Merin, and Clara McWeeney from Princeton University, along with Tashay Campbell from Georgetown Law, reinvestigated the case through the Making An Exoneree program and helped Muti build a parole application, which was ultimately granted. Come and learn more about his experience.
