In this photo provided by the Office of the Attorney General for the District of Columbia people talk at a forum in Washington, about the fate of 1980s drug kingpin Rayful Edmond. Edmond was eventually arrested and sentenced to life in prison. But federal prosecutors are now seeking his release, citing his years of assistance in helping authorities convict other dealers. In an unusual move, U.S. District Judge Emmet G. Sullivan has asked Washington Attorney General Karl Racine to solicit community opinions on whether Edmond, now 54, should be set free and whether he should be welcomed back to the city.
