    From what I’ve read I believe this was a clear miscarriage of justice that will hopefully be corrected on appeal. The case was extremely weak and based on the word of one man who didn’t even testify at the 2nd trial. His story is completely uncorroborated and his claims sound more like a fantasy or false memory. As Carl Sagan said, extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. It wasn’t there in this case, not even close.
