After Curtis Wallace was sentenced to 46-years-to-life in prison nearly two decades ago, for a shooting he has always maintained he did not commit, he made his family a promise: one day he would make it home in one piece.
Today, he worries that day will never come.
During the early morning hours of March 25 of this year, Wallace was stabbed in his sleep by a “jealous” cellmate.
“After that shocking incident, I'm no longer sure that I'll make it home,” Wallace told L.A. TACO in August.
For three years, Wallace has been waiting to see if the office of Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascón will recommend that his conviction be overturned.
