Walter Ogrod, 55, has spent almost 28 years behind bars for the murder of a four-year-old girl, but the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office recently filed a request for his release after determining he is 'likely innocent.'
A Pennsylvania death row inmate has developed symptoms of the coronavirus, but hasn't been tested or received the necessary medical treatment, his attorneys have said.
Earlier this week, Ogrod's attorneys learned the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas would not grant their request for a prompt hearing. His next court date, set for March 27, has been postponed until June 5. "Walter Ogrod is an innocent man who has spent nearly three decades on Pennsylvania's death row for a crime he did not commit," Rollins said in a statement provided to"He is now showing potentially life-threatening signs of COVID-19 with a high fever, cough, and difficulty breathing.
It was only on Tuesday, a week after he first reported symptoms, that a doctor gave Ogrod clearance to receive a decongestant for his respiratory issues, the motion added."Mr. Ogrod has exhibited symptoms consistent with COVID-19, has not been tested for COVID-19, is vulnerable to it because of his age and medical conditions, and has not been given appropriate medical treatment," his attorneys added in the motion.
