Biography

The Soledad Seven report states that on February 1, 1971 the court dropped conspiracy counts against Jesse Phillips, Roosevelt Williams and James Wagner but retained murder charges. It reports dismissal of all charges against four other, unnamed defendants. Dropping a charge did not establish release from their underlying prison confinement.
