Eric Anderson spent about nine years in prison for a robbery he didn’t commit. The case rested on one person claiming he was the robber. Wayne County now says that claim wasn’t reliable.
A new report from prosecutors, public defenders, Detroit police, judges, and advocates traces how that mistake happened. Valerie Newman, the Deputy Chief and Director of the Wayne County Prosecutor's Office Conviction Integrity Unit, explores that and more.
