New Trial Begins Tomorrow For Miranda Rights Violation

Charles Robert Phillips

 On March 5, 2008 -- one day after being released from the Wicomico County jail-Charles Robert Phillips stabbed to death  William Nibblett (known by all as Nib),well-liked local Pocomoke City plumber and handyman, in the victim's home.
 
Phillips already with a crime-filled past was sentenced in April 2009 to life in prison for the first-degree murder of William Nibblett.

His sentence also included a consecutive 20-year term for armed robbery.

However, in 2012, it was decided by the Maryland's Court of Appeals that Phillip's  Miranda Rights had been violated giving Phillips something Nib never got - another chance at anything!  

Phillips will have another trial.

Trial will be held in Snow Hill on Monday, June 10, 2013 and is expected to last four days.
