Louisiana Man Released After Nearly Three Decades on Death Row
A Louisiana man has been released after nearly 30 years on death row. Multiple judges determined the murder for which he was convicted never happened, citing video evidence not presented at his original trial.
Jimmie Duncan, a Louisiana man, has gained his freedom after spending nearly three decades on death row. Multiple judges have since concluded that the murder for which he received his conviction did not occur.
Duncan's release followed the emergence of video evidence. This evidence, which jurors did not see during his initial trial, played a role in the judges' conclusions, according to reports from NBC News' Dan Slepian.
