The wedding invitation for Forest “Woody” Shomberg and April Anello reads, “Love: 1 Injustice: 0. “When the two are married on June 5, it will be the culmination of years of waiting for the Madison couple, who were separated for six of the eight years since they met by Shombergâ??s imprisonment for a sexual assault a judge determined he didnâ??t commit. Shomberg, 46, was released in November on the strength of DNA evidence indicating he had nothing to do with the incident on March 8, 2002, in which a UW-Madison student was pulled from State Street and violently groped. Shomberg, whose account that he was celebrating his birthday a few miles away at the time was corroborated by Anello and other friends, was the victim of mistaken identity, the judge found.
