HARRISBURG, Pa., Feb. 9, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Today the case
to keep wife killer Rafael Robb, the
former University of Pennsylvania
professor, behind bars until the last day of his 10-year sentence
will be taken from the Montgomery
County Courthouse directly to the Pennsylvania Board of Probation and Parole
(PBPP).
One day after joining early release opponents, including
Montgomery County District
Attorney Kevin R. Steele and State
Rep. Mike Vereb (Montgomery County) in Norristown, Gary L.
Gregory, Ellen Gregory Robb's
brother, and his legal team will testify before the PBPP and urge
it to reject Robb's final bid for release before his sentence
expires in 2017. Robb fatally bludgeoned Ms. Gregory Robb in 2006 as she was wrapping
Christmas presents in the couple's Montgomery County home. He never stood trial
for the killing; instead pleading guilty to manslaughter and
received the maximum 10-year sentence.
Mr. Gregory, Attorneys Robert J.
Mongeluzzi and Andrew R.
Duffy, of Philadelphia-based Saltz, Mongeluzzi, Barrett
& Bendesky, P.C., along with Rep. Vereb (who sponsored reform
legislation in honor of Ms. Gregory
Robb giving families of victims a greater voice in the
parole process) will be available (at Rep. Vereb's Capitol Office;
Rm. 400 Irvis Office Building) to discuss the testimony before the
Board following its 3 p.m.
meeting.
