Another possible miscarriage of justice is the Hanratty case - let's hope that the matter is finally settled soon through the use of DNA testing (his body has been/will be exhumed to carry out the testing). I believe from my study of the case that it will be proved that he did not commit the crime - another reason to oppose the Death Penalty. The problem with this situation is that there is a murderer out there who has never been apprehended or punished while Hanratty's family have suffered the loss of their son/brother/nephew for no reason.
