In 1990, Ronald Johnson was convicted of murder - without evidence. After more than three decades, the file has now been dropped.
The now 61-year-old is free. Johnson missed the deaths of his mother, his brother and the birth of his granddaughter. Glynn Simmons was in prison for 48 years - almost half a century - because of a false murder charge. In Bavaria, Manfred Genditzki was innocently imprisoned for 13 years, and the Free State then paid 368,700 euros in compensation.
