Yesterday on the Big Island of Hawai'i Ian Schweitzer was #exonerated after 25 years in prison. Mr. Schwitzer was exonerated based on new DNA evidence, new tire tread evidence, and the refutation of junk science bite mark evidence. His original conviction was based largely on jailhouse informant testimony. Mr. Schwitzer was represented by the #InnocenceProject and the #HawaiiInnocenceProject. https://innocenceproject.org/ian-schweitzers-exonerated-murder-25-years-hawaii/ #law #lawfedi #CriminalJustice #CriminalLegalReform #WrongfulConviction @law
