Charges dismissed in retrial of man convicted of Chandra Levy murder
foxnews ^ | July 28, 2016

Posted on 07/28/2016 2:36:31 PM PDT by plain talk

The U.S. Attorney's Office in Washington, DC on Thursday moved to dismiss the case -- and a retrial -- against Ingmar Guandique, the illegal immigrant previously convicted of murdering intern Chandra Levy in May 2001, citing "unforeseen developments."

Guandique, an illegal immigrant from El Salvador, is set to be released to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement for removal proceedings.

The 2010 conviction of Guandique -- and the 60-year prison sentenced imposed on him at the time -- was vacated and a new trial was ordered in 2015 based on what Guandique's defense team said was new evidence.

"Today, in the interests of justice and based on recent unforeseen developments that were investigated over the past week, the Office moved to dismiss the case charging Ingmar Guandique with the May 2001 murder of Chandra Levy," the U.S. Attorney's Office said in a statement. "The Office has concluded that it can no longer prove the murder case against Mr. Guandique beyond a reasonable doubt."

Condit was a suspect in Levy's murder for a period of time, and Guandique's defense team reportedly planned to introduce evidence at the retrial implicating him (Condit) in Levy's death.

So we may have been right back then, when we were convicting him.

A haiku I posted years ago when this whole thing broke:

Interns passed around
One intern said way too much
She won't talk again

I never thought this guy did it. My instincts told me he was a fall guy.....foreign, ignorant, unconnected, easy to pin the rap on.

Too many political earmarks in this intriguing murder case...may never be solved.

Paging Homicide Detective, Lt. Joe Kenda!

...and his friend and if I am not mistaken roommate John Kashick. Incidentally John finished out his term as a Congressman and did no run for reelection right after her death.

Yeah, but that was back when you could use the words "illegal immigrant" or "muslim", and you could 'suspect' them of these type of acts.

Had this murder occurred recently, the patsy would have been a conservative white guy.

Well, once they convicted some "illegal immigrant", he was safe.

Hard to decipher. I want to know what these unforeseen developments that have been investigated are

Probably not Condit. At the time of the murder, Condit was one of a few Dem Congressmen who would occasionally vote against the Clintons’ wishes. Another was Ohio Congressman James Traficant, who was pro-life and anti illegal immigration.

Anyone who goes off the plantation (D and R alike) can expect a powerful backlash.
