Exonerated: Anthony Legion, Spent 19 Years Behind Bars For A Murder He Did Not Commit

Anthony Legion spent 19 years behind bars for a murder he did not commit in Detroit, Michigan in 2001. Mr. Legion was convicted due to a jailhouse informant who later told investigators that the police said if he made a statement against Anthony and his co-defendant, his sentence for another crime would be reduced. Mr. Legion was released from prison in February 2020, and later exonerated on October 1, 2020.
