Rae Carruth picks a state for post-release supervision, and it’s not California

Former Carolina Panthers wide receiver Rae Carruth has registered to spend the first part of his post-prison life in Pennsylvania, according to a state official.

“I can confirm he is under Pennsylvania supervision,” Maria Finn, a press secretary for the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections, said of Carruth.

Carruth, 44, was set free from a North Carolina prison Monday. He served nearly 19 years in prison after a Charlotte jury convicted him of conspiring to murder Cherica Adams and destroy their unborn child by hiring a hitman to shoot her in 1999. Cherica Adams died four weeks after the shooting.
