The murder of Michael Jordan‘s father James in 1993 changed the basketball legend’s life, but we didn’t expect it to get a second evaluation in 2024. Moreover, according to NBC News, the judge who presided over this case is now asking the state to release one of the two men convicted for the tragic event. Judge Gregory Weeks requested the state of North Carolina’s parole commission to free Daniel Green amid his life sentence for the botched robbery-turned-murder of James Jordan, per a communications officer for the state’s Department of Corrections. Green, then 18, had claimed that he did not shoot Jordan, but that he helped codefendant Larry Demery get rid of the body.
Michael Jordan’s Dad’s Murder Case May Have Convicted The Wrong Man According To Judge
Elsewhere, though, Michael Jordan is keeping a pretty low profile as usual, although this isn’t the first update that we got on this once closed, now “reopened” case this decade. Back in 2020, the aforementioned codefendant Larry Demery was able to secure parole… and then had his parole canceled the following year. The reason behind this, however, was never clarified. As such, we don’t know if a similar situation will happen this time around with Daniel Green, or if they aren’t even comparable scenarios.
Meanwhile, a lot of headlines around Michael Jordan have more to do with his son these days, whether for his relationship drama or other exploits. As such, we don’t really expect the Chicago Bull to necessarily speak out about this, but we wouldn’t be surprised if he addresses it in some way, if this ends up going through. We’ll see what other updates emerge…
