Murder Defendant Pleads Guilty to 2 Felonies

During a trial readiness hearing Aug. 23, a murder defendant pleaded guilty to murder and soliciting.

Quincy Green, who is also known as Wayne Wright, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder while armed for allegedly shooting 44-year-old Dana Hamilton on the 800 block of Southern Avenue, SE in 2016.

In addition to pleading guilty to second degree murder, Green also pleaded guilty to soliciting murder in 2019.

Apparently, Green made a jail phone call where he asked a witness to tell another witness that someone in jail told on him and to kill the informant’s wife.

A sentencing date has not been set yet.
