I dont believe that he is innocent, however, the prosecutor should NEVER sit as a judge on a case that they prosecuted. The judge should have recused.

“If a judge served as prosecutor and then the judge,” wrote Tucker, summarizing the U.S. Supreme Court ruling in the Williams case “there is a finding of automatic bias and a due process violation.”

He wasn't the prosecutor - Rendell was.

He was a judge during one of the later appeals.

His appeals ran out in 1990 but Pennsylvania had a governor (Casey) who would not sign a death warrant and the first death warrant was signed by Tom Ridge in 1995. More appeals and the second death warrant was signed by Tom Ridge in 1999.
