Susan Smith, convicted of killing 2 sons, seeks new trial
The Associated Press
SPARTANBURG -- The South Carolina mother convicted in 1995 of killing her two sons by rolling her car into a lake is asking for a new trial, but a prosecutor said Saturday she faces a deadline problem.
Susan Smith, 38, filed a handwritten petition Tuesday in Union County for post-conviction relief.
She does not have a lawyer, Sixteenth Circuit Solicitor Kevin Brackett said Saturday.
Smith is serving a life sentence at a state prison near Greenwood after her July 1995 murder conviction. Her boys, 3-year-old Michael and 14-month-old Alex, disappeared Oct. 25, 1994.
The deadline for post-conviction relief would have been one year from the trial ending, Brackett said: “Her first hurdle would be explaining the delay.”
