Whether the testimony in a subsequent trial by the unnamed witness who prepared the exculpatory chart and who testified Petitioner was a mere friend of the family and did not include him among the conspirators constitutes newly discovered evidence warranting the vacation of petitioner’s sentence. -i | | | |
