Daniel Green, one of the men convicted for the robbery and murder of James Jordan Sr. (the father of Michael Jordan), received a breakthrough in his quest to be released from prison. According to reports, The North Carolina judge who presided over Green's trial petitioned the state's parole commission to release Green, arguing that a forensic blood analyst investigating the case did not disclose the fact that a blood-like substance found inside the car might not have been his blood at all. In 2020, Green spoke to VladTV about his involvement in the crime, stating that he helped his friend, Larry Demery, dispose of the body but asserted he didn't kill Jordan Sr. Green dispelled the notion that this had anything to do with Michael Jordan's notorious gambling problem and said Jordan Sr. was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Green also detailed how his friend Larry eventually testified and pinned everything on him.
