After Hamilton’s murder, investigators picked up 14-year-old Haitian immigrant Thomas Charlemagne and the victim’s brother Martell. During hours of heated interrogation, Charlemagne randomly pointed at Colin Warner’s picture in a mugshot photo-book.
Warner fought from the inside, studying in the law library and writing the brief for his first appeal. He lost several appeals and he was denied parole, as his protestation of innocence was taken as lack of remorse. His friend King decided to take a new approach: reinvestigate the crime.
Protected by the double jeopardy clause of the Fifth Amendment, Simmons finally admitted that he killed Hamilton in revenge for the death of a friend. He gave them the names of all the people who saw the crime.
Warner moved to Georgia with Catherine Charles, whom he’d married nearly 8 years prior, and her daughter, while King stayed in New York City, working to exonerate others who were wrongfully convicted. Crown Heights, a powerful film that captures Warner’s case with a tender, somber beauty, is in select theaters nationwide. ...
Though he maintained his innocence, Warner spent the next 21 years in prison. Warner is played by Lakeith Stanfield, most recently known for his roles in Jordan Peele’s breakout success Get Out and Donald Glover’s hit TV show Atlanta on FX.
T he Sundance Audience Award-winning film Crown Heights spotlights the injustices faced by Black communities at the hands of the U.S. criminal justice system. Written and directed by Matt Ruskin, the movie is based on the true story of Colin Warner, a Trinidadian immigrant living in Brooklyn’s Crown Heights neighborhood.
