Amen. I hope she gets the closure she deserves.

My read of the NY Post article is that they did not present it to the Grand Jury in time, and the likely reason for that is the weakness of the case at that time...I was there that night...a really sad day for all.

November 15, 2007 -- A top Manhattan prosecutor yesterday defended a decision that - for now - has let a suspect in the poker-game slaying of a New Jersey dad walk free.

Chief Assistant District Attorney James Kindler said prosecutors did not accidentally miss a deadline for seeking an indictment of William Delvalle, but instead consciously decided not to request it for the time being.

"The investigation is ongoing. We didn't think it was the right time to go to a grand jury," Kindler said

WTF.

TT,
Your link no longer goes to a story that contains your quote.

The story in the link does state that the alleged robber was involved in a manslaughter, not a murder, and that his parole was complete 10/12. Agree or disagree, he apparently is completely free of the criminal justice system at this point and has the same rights as a first offender.

Good luck to the NYPD trying to tail this guy. If his only goal is to blow town, he can probably ditch a detective in any public building with an elevator and a bathroom.

How does this warrant a "wtf?" they obv felt they didn't have a strong enough case. Maybe they made a mistake of picking him up in the first place--maybe some deal they thought they'd be able to negotiate after picking him up never materialized. Either way, they might have botched this a little but its not a loss.
