Steve Hinckley

Steve Hinckley was an American man wrongfully convicted of murder in the 1980s. He was accused of killing his mother and sister, but significant evidence pointed to another suspect, and Hinckley's conviction was based on questionable forensic testimony and overlooked evidence. After spending nearly two decades in prison, new evidence emerged, leading to his exoneration in 2001. His case highlights issues with forensic reliability and the importance of thorough investigations in the justice system.
