iamshack Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 QUOTE (Tex @ Nov 14, 2009 -> 04:09 AM) The fire was accidental, but outdated forensic and fire science testimony was used to convict him. The "experts" in the area testified that the fire must have been arson, turns out that was not the case. Witnesses changed their testimony once they heard the guy may have set the fire. And of course, the guy was poor and didn't have Scheck, Cochran, Bailey, Shapiro, Kardashian, and Dershowitz defending him. http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2009/09...07fa_fact_grann Well right, but they charged him with arson...I thought you were saying they charged him with something accidental and still fried him.

No. I see what you meant. Another bit of tragedy is some of this was brought to light before he was executed by Gov. Perry seemingly did not review the new material.
