Boston Mayor Michelle Wu to Apologize for Wrongful Arrests in Charles Stuart Case

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu is expected to apologize to two men, Alan Swanson and Willie Bennett, who were wrongly linked to the 1989 Charles Stuart case. Stuart had falsely claimed that he, his wife Carol, and their unborn baby were shot by a 6-foot-tall black man. Stuart later confessed to the crime before taking his own life. Mayor Wu's apology aims to acknowledge the city's wrongdoing and the harm it caused to Boston's Black community.
