Don't laugh. In one semi-famous case (was it Hurricane Carter? I don't remmber) another inmate, who was dying of natural causes admitted to having committed the murder and the actual perp walked.

it was not Carter. His second conviction in the murder case was thrown out by a sympathetic judge. NJ could have tried him a third time, but chose not to (too much money, too long ago, witnesses dead).
