The Story of Christopher Turner

The bizarre, three-decade legal odyssey of Christopher Turner and six other men began on October 1, 1984. Around dusk that fall evening, Washington, D.C., police were called to a garage off an alley in a Northwest neighborhood. There, they discovered the beaten, bloody body of 48-year-old Catherine Fuller, the victim of a sexual assault that had left her with a shattered liver, a punctured lung, and four broken ribs. At around 4:30, Mrs. Fuller, a mother of six, had left her apartment to pick up a prescription at the drug store, $50 tucked in her bra. The crime scene offered investigators no physical evidence or clues as to the perpetrators. But an anonymous phone call that night suggested the murder was the work of a gang, the Eighth and H crew. <a href="https://medium.com/mid-atlantic-innocence-project/the-chris-turner-story-e27731d38895">Visit Now</a>
