| [Nettime-bold] Ohio Man Cleared by DNA Evidence |
Judged Genetically Ohio Man Cleared by DNA Evidence Associated Press DNA evidence has cleared a man who has spent 13 years in prison after being convicted of rape. Michael Green, 35, was convicted of raping a nurse who was being treated for liver cancer at the Cleveland Clinic. She died after testifying at Green's trial that he was her attacker. Green, a former employee at the research hospital, was sentenced to 20 to 50 years in prison. However, tests showed that DNA on a washcloth used by the attacker to clean up and found at the crime scene in 1988 didn't match Green's DNA. http://news.findlaw.com/ap/o/1110/9-19-2001/20010919182705750.html The Innocence Project at the Cardozo School of Law http://www.cardozo.yu.edu/innocence_project _______________________________________________ Nettime-bold mailing list [email protected] http://www.nettime.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nettime-bold
