Less than two years since he was exonerated in part based on flawed hair analysis by the FBI, police now say George Perrot rape an unconscious woman.
George Perrot, shown with his mother, Beverly Garrant, talks to the media after his release from prison in 2016. By Meagan Flynn Meagan Flynn Morning Mix reporter Email Bio Follow May 6 at 6:53 AM Less than two years after being exonerated of a 1985 rape in a case that made international headlines, the same Massachusetts man, George Perrot, now reportedly stands charged with raping an unconscious woman.
Amid waves of wrongful convictions based on flawed science in an age of evolving DNA technology, Perrot’s case represents an unusual outlier: a defendant returned to jail on the same or similar serious charges but in a separate case, as most famously happened in the case of Steven Avery in the Netflix documentary series “Making a Murderer.”
The Boston Globe reported that when Perrot was first released from prison in February 2016, he leaped from his chair in court and hugged his mom. “She told me I better not go back in there,” Perrot later said. “Originally sentenced to life in prison, for a horrific Springfield rape, which was negated in 2016 by a superior court judge granting a new trial. He just re-offended in Lawrence,” Gulluni wrote on Facebook. He told the Globe that his office never stopped believing that Perrot “committed several heinous offenses on elderly female victims” in the 1980s.
“How can I say it was [him] when this man has a mustache and beard?” she said, when asked in court whether Perrot was the perpetrator. “This fellow didn’t have any beard. He didn’t have any mustache.”
