CHARLESTON — Three inmates who were convicted of murder as teenagers decades ago have been set free under a West Virginia law that allows parole for juveniles who commit serious crimes, a prison system spokesman said Tuesday. William E. Wayne, Lawrence T. Redman and Larry D. Hall II were released earlier this month from St. Marys Correctional Center. A three-member state parole board approved their releases last month, West Virginia Department of Military Affairs and Public Safety spokesman Lawrence Messina said.
