I believe in *most* cases there is no DNA evidence. which means there are probably a great many innocent people in prison. -- nm - loosilu Oct 20, 08:30 3
- "� 22 percent of cases closed by the Innocence Project since 2004 were closed because of lost or missing evidence." -- nm - znufrii Oct 20, 08:31 1
