Did Robeson County sheriff hide evidence in James Jordan killing investigation?

One of the men convicted of killing Michael Jordan’s father almost three decades ago has added new details to his multi-pronged and voluminous quest for freedom.

Attorneys for Daniel Andre Green submitted documents in Robeson County Superior Court on Friday that contend notes from a 1997 drug and corruption investigation into the Robeson County Sheriff’s Office further bolster their claims of law enforcement misconduct.

Green, 42, has maintained that he did not shoot James Jordan in July 1993, though his trial attorneys acknowledged that he helped dispose of the body of the father of the basketball superstar and drove his car.
