The reputed leader of a notorious, violent drug gang that terrorized Liberty City in the 1990s, already taken off death row after a judge found prosecutors committed misconduct, saw his convictions and life sentences reduced in a plea deal with the Miami-Dade State Attorney's Office. Corey Smith, 52, was facing resentencing on two 2005 death sentences, but his defense attorneys spent years uncovering misconduct by police and prosecutors, persuading a judge last March to remove two assistant state attorneys from the case.
