: TalkLeftDNA Clears Conn. Man After 20 Years in Prison
By Jeralyn
Miguel Roman served 20 years of a 60 year sentence for killing his girlfriend. Recent DNA tests proved him innocent and charges have been dismissed.
The DNA tests also led to the charging of another man in the murder:
The same DNA tests that exonerated Roman implicated led police in December to charge another man, Pedro Miranda of New Britain. He is accused in the killings of Lopez, 16-year-old Rosa Valentin in 1986 and 13-year-old Mayra Cruz in 1987. Miranda, 51, faces the possibility of the death penalty if convicted.
DNA not only frees the innocent, it also helps locate and convict the true perpetrator.
