Hood, 51, was convicted of the shooting death of Marshall Morgan Jr
Hood, 51, was convicted of the shooting death of Marshall Morgan Jr., an Illinois Institute of Technology basketball standout, and had been serving a 50-year prison sentence. He has long maintained his innocence and said Chicago police should have investigated Morgan's father in the killing.

Hood's case was one of the first re-examined by the Conviction Integrity Unit after the Tribune investigated the evidence and made inquiries with prosecutors in After an initial review, prosecutors decided in summer 2013 that the convictions of Hood and Washington for killing Morgan were solid, but their lawyers kept pressing authorities.

Morgan's father, Marshall Sr
Morgan's father, Marshall Sr., was convicted of manslaughter in the 1977 shooting death of a friend who owed him money. He was questioned in the slaying of his son in large part because he was struggling financially in the months before his son was killed and took out a life insurance policy on his son. He also became a suspect two years later in the killing of his fiancée, whose life he also insured.

No new charges in the Morgan case are imminent, but the investigation will continue, the state's attorney's office said.
