Jabar Walker's 25-Year Wrongful Conviction in Manhattan Double Homicide Overturned

Jabar Walker has been exonerated in Manhattan after spending over 25 years wrongfully convicted for a double homicide. New evidence revealed that police from the corrupt "Dirty 30" precinct pressured a witness to falsely incriminate Walker. The joint reinvestigation by the Innocence Project and Manhattan District Attorney's Post-Conviction Justice Unit uncovered misconduct and manufactured evidence that led to Walker's wrongful conviction. The prosecution's sole eyewitness received monetary benefits and misidentified another innocent man in a different shooting. Walker's case highlights the pervasive misconduct within the "Dirty 30" precinct and the failures of the justice system.
