Ralph Armstrong, whose convictions for the 1980 rape and murder of a UW-Madison student were overturned in 2005 and charges against him in the case were dismissed in July after he spent almost 30 years in prison, remains in a New Mexico prison on decades-old parole violations.
Armstrong, 57, was transferred in August from Wisconsin to New Mexico after the Dane County district attorneyâ??s office decided not to appeal the dismissal of charges against Armstrong in the death of Charise Kamps.
