A Pennsylvania man who had been serving life for second-degree murder died over the weekend, 12 days after being granted a medical transfer from prison to a facility that could better treat his condition, including quadriplegia. Ezra Bozeman , 68, died on Saturday at the UPMC Altoona medical center, Ryan Tarkowski, communications director for the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections, confirmed on Tuesday.
''He was always, always so optimistic,' Prabhu said Tuesday. 'And he was confident that it wasn't a matter of if he gets out, it was when he gets out.'Bozeman had been convicted in 1975 in the shooting death of Morris Weitz, a dry-cleaning business co-owner, during an attempted robbery. He had maintained he was innocent. Pennsylvania's compassionate release law covers incarcerated people who are seriously ill and expected to die within a year.
