Oh come on. DNA typing was in its infancy when these murders were committed. This is a case that shows that when the facts can be mustered the innocent are released.
if you had told me that these men wee excited on someone’s false testimony then we could have a discussion about corruption.

And sometimes justice isn’t, by design.
“This is a case that shows that when the facts can be mustered the innocent are released.”
I wonder how long the State stalled doing the DNA testing? The State hopes by stalling long enough the evidence will have deteriorated or been contaminated or lost.
Of course the flip side to this are the “innocence” projects that pick old cases where they demand a new trial knowing that witnesses have died or forgotten things, and then claim that the convict was “exonerated.”
Best that everyone just carry. No better proof of guilt than the dead perp at your feet.
