"Minnesota man Marvin Haynes released from prison after murder conviction overturned"

Marvin Haynes, who was serving a life sentence for the 2004 murder of a flower shop employee in Minneapolis, has been released from prison after his conviction was overturned. The judge cited unconstitutional witness identification and a lack of physical evidence tying Haynes to the crime. With the help of the Great North Innocence Project, Haynes successfully pleaded his innocence before a Hennepin County judge. The Hennepin County Attorney's Office acknowledged the injustice and expressed a commitment to righting the wrong.
