Not Guilty: Bowie State Student Acquitted of All Charges
The jury deliberated for less than three hours.
After deliberating for less than three hours, the jury in the Bowie State murder trial has just delivered a verdict of not guilty on all counts for defendant Alexis Simpson, according to a spokesperson for Prince George’s County State’s Attorney Angela Alsobrooks.
Simpson was on trial for the September 2011 murder of her fomer Bowie State University roommate Dominique Frazier.
Alsobrooks is “stunned” and “disappointed” with the verdict, according to the spokesperson, but still respects the verdict and the system.
