Jose Anibal Colon, now 63, claimed he fired his weapon with his eyes closed and denied involvement in the armed robbery that preceded the 1983 shooting. The parole board rejected his release, citing insufficient rehabilitation and lack of accountability — a decision backed by the governor and district attorney, who emphasized the lasting pain of Trooper Hanna’s family and the gravity of the crime. Hanna’s daughters spoke powerfully at the hearing, underscoring their enduring grief. Colon’s case will be reconsidered in three years. The trooper’s legacy lives on through the George L. Hanna Memorial Awards for Bravery. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
