Jimmie “Chris” Duncan, who spent 27 years on death row, is freed after a court overturns his murder conviction following doubt raised about the evidence used at trial. Multiple reports say a video that comes to light undermines key aspects of the prosecution’s case, which relied in part on “bite marks.” The video’s contents are described as disturbing and as casting uncertainty on whether the bite-mark evidence supported connecting Duncan to the crime. The decision to overturn his conviction reportedly comes last month, leading to his release. The accounts emphasize that the change in outcome is tied to newly emerging video material that affects confidence in the original findings. The reports do not provide details about the underlying facts of the case beyond the evidence type and the procedural result, but they agree on the main timeline: Duncan’s death sentence conviction is set aside and he is subsequently freed after years of incarceration. No additional information on whether prosecutors plan to appeal is included in the provided excerpts.
