Kimberly Mawson appeal denied

RI Supreme Court: motion is moot

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) - The RI Supreme Court has denied an appeal from Kimberly Mawson.

The court says the motion is moot because Mawson has already been granted a new trial.

Mawson was convicted of killing her 19 month old daughter, Jade, in Warwick in 2007.  But she was released last year after the lawyer for her ex-boyfriend, Daniel Fusco, claimed his client confessed to the crime.

The retrial will now move forward. A date has not yet been scheduled.
