Larry Davis went on trial for the Vizcaino murder five months later. He was found guilty on March 14, 1991.[24] Already serving 5 to 15 years on weapons charges, he was sentenced to serve an additional 25 years to life. After the sentencing, Davis spoke for about an hour, repeating his longstanding complaint that the police and the court system were engaged in a vendetta against him.[4]
Death[edit]
Davis was serving his sentence at Shawangunk Correctional Facility near the Ulster County hamlet of Wallkill. At 7 p.m. on February 20, 2008, correctional officers overseeing one of the yards noticed inmates congregating around an apparent fight. When they went to break it up, they found Davis had been stabbed repeatedly with a 9 inches (23 cm) long metal shiv. He was taken by ambulance to St. Luke’s Hospital in nearby Newburgh, where he was pronounced dead on arrival.[25]
After questioning by the state police and the New York State Department of Correctional Services’s (DOCS) inspector general’s office, another inmate, Luis Rosado, 42, was charged with murder.[26]
Rosado was already serving a sentence of 25 years to life for murder and assault charges in the early 1980s, and had been denied parole in 2007. He was arraigned at Shawangunk Town Court the next morning. DOCS officials said both he and Davis had long disciplinary records, including fights with other inmates, but there was no record of any previous violence between the two.[26]
