| Subject: Wrongfully convicted man gets $21 million settlement after nearly four decades behind bars Sun Feb 24, 2019 6:23 pm | |
| The city of Simi Valley has reached a $21 million settlement with Craig Coley, who was wrongly convicted of a 1978 double murder and eventually exonerated after spending nearly four decades behind bars. Simi Valley City Manager Eric Levitt announced the settlement Saturday. Coley was accused of murdering his ex-girlfriend Rhonda Wicht, 24, and her son Donald Wicht, 4, at their home in Simi Valley on Nov. 11, 1978. The two were found dead in their beds at their apartment on Buyers Street. She was apparently strangled by a macrame rope and her son was smothered. Coley was arrested later that day.
