ADVANCE FOR USE TUESDAY, AUG. 1, 2017 AND THEREAFTER-Earl Rice Jr. walks in the park near his home in Wilmington, Del., Thursday, May 18, 2017. In September 1973, Rice and his friend ran toward Ola Danenberg, and Rice snatched her purse. As he took off down an alley, he says he looked back to see Danenberg fall to her knees. Two days later, hearing police were looking for him, Rice went to the police station and confessed to robbery. That's when detectives told him Danenberg had hit her head on the sidewalk and died. They charged him with murder. (AP Photo/Matt Rourke)
