Convicted Laurel Murderer Denied Commutation

Delaware's Board of Pardons has denied a convicted killer's request to commute his life sentence.

James Waller was sentenced to life in prison in 1978 for the kidnapping, robbery and murder of 67-year-old John Horstman of Laurel.

Waller, now 67 himself, told the pardons board on Thursday that he is in poor health and would like to spend his remaining time helping others.
