Background
DeAngelo Capone (born February 19, 1975) was convicted in 1994 in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, of multiple counts of aggravated murder, burglary, and robbery. He has served over thirty years in prison and continues to pursue justice through writing, advocacy, and spiritual education. His case, “State of Ohio vs. Capone, CR-94-308025-B,” is documented below. In 1995, the Ohio Eighth District Court of Appeals affirmed the convictions but reversed part of the sentence (merging duplicate counts and striking an annual solitary confinement clause). In 2015, the court issued an order correcting the sentence consistent with that ruling.
