Wrongful Conviction Examined
by TChris
Last month, TalkLeft reported the release of Ernest Willis from death row in Texas, where he spent 17 years for a crime he didn't commit. A sharply written story in San Antonio's Express-News exposes the grim details of this tragic injustice.

This compelling report of Willis' wrongful conviction concludes in tomorrow's Express-News.
