Every judge who blocked this testing should be immediately disbarred.
This case sounds eerily similar to the case of Curtis Flowers, who spent 20+ years on death row for a quadruple-homicide in Mississippi. The DA and investigators just didn’t want to do their jobs, so they pinned it on someone who they didn’t expect to fight back, and they tried and convicted him 6 times instead of looking for the real culprit. In the Dark is an incredible podcast about it.
The state isn’t just stealing the years these guys were locked up. They’re stealing the years afterwards too. In Ziegler’s case, he’s never used a cell phone, never used the internet. There’s no amount of money that would compensate for what they did to him.
He is still not free and there is no timeline to be freed :(
Wow that’s a lot of murders
According to the article he
…killed his wife and inlaws…
That one big family!
