PBS's Summary: "Cornelius Dupree was sentenced to 75 years in prison after being convicted of rape and robbery at age 19 in 1980. After 30 years behind bars, new DNA testing proved his innocence and a Texas judge overturned the conviction and cleared his name. Ray Suarez gets more on the case from Dallas County District Attorney Craig Watkins." I watched this earlier, and Suarez also discussed the general issue about wrongfully imprisoned inmates and DNA evidence further. Transcript on PBS.org.
