Peter Reilly, 1973 Peter Reilly was 18 years old when his mother was found murdered in their home. After eight hours of interrogation by Connecticut police, he confessed to brutally murdering her. A jury convicted him of first-degree manslaughter based on his confession, and he served three years in prison before a judge set him free in the face of new evidence indicating someone else committed the crime.

[edit] The real Peter Reilly

I have more information on the actual case regarding the false imprisonment of the real life Peter Reilly. I feel that the main article for this name should be on the real person, not the fake. How would I set that up? Coolgamer 23:11, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] disambig

I've converted this to a disambiguation page, as there are many people named Peter Reilly. It was most recently a redirect, created after a sloppy {{prod}} cleanup. I've removed the claims on the page from Wikiprojects, as they don't appear relevant to the disambiguation. -- Mikeblas (talk) 17:51, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
