The man convicted over the 2001 murder of Washington intern Chandra Levy will be released after prosecutors dropped the charges following ‘unforeseen development.’
The U.S. Attorney’s office said in a statement released Thursday that the office has moved to dismiss the case charging Ingmar Guandique with Levy’s 2001 murder.
According to the statement, prosecutors concluded they could not convict Guandique, who is originally from El Salvador, ‘based on recent unforeseen developments that were investigated over the past week.’ The statement does not elaborate.
In May this year, counsel for Guandique indicated they would present evidence at his planned retrial that would implicate Condit in Chandra Levy murder.
He was found guilty in 2010 of Levy’s murder but was granted a new trial in 2015 after his attorneys argued a key witness gave false or misleading testimony.
That witness was Condit, a former California Congressman who knew the 24-year-old Bureau of Prisons intern but refused to answer questions about the nature of their relationship while under oath during her murder trial, despite the fact that the married father of two had admitted to authorities that he had an affair with the intern.

This was all over the news in 2001 for about 4 months. Then 9/11 hit. And everybody forgot about her.
Only guy who literally benefited directly by 9/11/2001 – lead story every day to total burying of the story.
Yes, he got away with murder just like Teddy-Boy. I never believed Guandique was guilty.
gee … another demonRat gets away with a crime ….
SURPRISE!!!!
“Rough bondage sex with Condit.”
That can turn out very badly for the bondee.
Hey, Garylicious, I hope you enjoyed and made good use of your last 15 years of freedom.
Right, another Democrat gets away with a crime by making sure someone else was sent to jail. This is the MO of the people that care so much about the little people.
Sounds like he at least has a miserable life.
Just a guess, but I’d say his wife got away with murder …
