CHARLOTTE – The Charlotte Housing Authority is expected to release a statement Wednesday about Tuesday's verdict in the death of Eva Green.
A Mecklenburg County jury found the CHA was negligent in the 63-year-old woman's death.
The plaintiffs argued the housing authority never did a thorough criminal or background check into Kenneth Cyrus, who pleaded guilty to second degree murder in Green's death at the Charlottetown Terrace Apartments.
The jury awarded the plaintiffs $132,000 in damages.
