The latest Tuesday's Focus examines the story of Ray Krone, death row exonoree:
In April 2002 Ray Krone became the 100th innocent person released from prison after having been sentenced to death. Ray spent ten years in prison, including two years on Arizona’s death row, for the murder of a female bartender.
He was freed when DNA testing proved he was not the killer and identified a man serving a sentence for an unrelated crime as the murderer. Ray believes in the U.S. system of justice but feels the death penalty system is broken.
He has been profiled in “Parade Magazine” and has spoken widely since his release
