Minnesota Man Exonerated After 27 Years in Prison for Wrongful Murder Conviction
Bryan Hooper Sr., a Minnesota father wrongfully convicted of murder, has been exonerated and released from prison after nearly three decades. His release comes after a key witness, who previously testified against him, admitted to committing the crime in a chilling hand-written letter. Hooper spent 27 years behind bars for a murder in Minneapolis that was tainted by false evidence. The confession from the star witness has prompted authorities to overturn his conviction, marking a significant moment in the fight against wrongful imprisonment.
