Original: dodencel
An American man sentenced to death has been released from prison after 41 years, after new DNA evidence showed it did not match him. Dutch media, including RTL Nieuws, are reporting on the case, drawing attention to the question of how he was convicted in the first place and renewed debate in the United States about wrongful convictions and the death penalty.
Why now: The release of a man who spent 41 years on death row on flawed DNA evidence is a striking wrongful-conviction story drawing international attention.
