3 Other Goetz Victims Move on, Two to Prison
- Share via
NEW YORK — Bernie Goetz remains in Greenwich Village, Darrell Cabey in the South Bronx. But a decade after the subway gunman opened fire, his three other victims have moved on--two of them to state prison.
* James Ramseur has been jailed since July 9, 1985, for a brutal rape and robbery. Serving an 8 1/3- to 25-year sentence in a maximum security jail, his earliest parole date is February, 1995.
* Barry Allen is also incarcerated, serving 3 1/2 to 7 years on a 1991 conviction for robbing a 58-year-old diabetic of $54. He is due out of jail on June 28, 1995, unless additional disciplinary problems extend his time.
* Troy Canty, a ninth-grade dropout, was a petty thief and crack smoker who went through drug rehabilitation and took vocational training as an automobile mechanic. The last blip on his criminal record was a 1990 conviction for shoplifting a home pregnancy kit from a department store; he completed a year’s probation in Westchester County in 1991.
His attorney, Scott H. Greenfield, said Canty has left the Bronx, but didn’t know his whereabouts. Neither did Goetz, who is suing Canty for $1 million. Other attempts to locate Canty were unsuccessful.
