North Carolina Appeals c Court Overturns Convictions in Officer Slaying Veronica 05/21/20 (Thu) 03:41:17 7b8d35 No.258954

An appeals court has overturned the convictions of a man accused of being the getaway driver in an alleged robbery attempt that led to the slaying of a police officer nearly 25 years ago.

The North Carolina Court of Appeals cited prosecutorial errors in dismissing Marc Peterson Oldroyd's convictions of second-degree murder, attempted armed robbery and conspiracy to commit armed robbery in the October 1996 shooting of Jonesville Police Sgt. Gregory Keith Martin.

Oldroyd pleaded guilty in 2014 in exchange for a 12-year sentence, The Winston-Salem Journal reported. But the court ruled 2-1 on Tuesday that because the indictment cited “Huddle House employees" and didn't identify by name any individual victims of the alleged robbery attempt, that charge would have to be dropped, along with all of the related counts.
