A woman convicted of killing her husband of 17 years was cleared after the Pima County Attorney's Office admitted its prosecutor intentionally withheld documents that could have helped her case. At the request of Pima County Attorney Barbara LaWall, Superior Court Judge Virginia Kelly dismissed Carolyn June Peak's case with prejudice, meaning she can never be tried for her husband's death. Now all of prosecutor David White's recent cases will be reviewed, LaWall said. David White, the prosecutor who handled Peak's case and many other notable murder trials here, died in January at age 52 of pancreatic cancer. Wyatt Earp Peak was found shot to death in his bed the morning of Jan. 28, 1998.
