Man Exonerated After 19 Years Thanks to Letter from Actual Shooter

Emel McDowell served 19 years in prison for a murder he didn't commit, based on a letter from the actual gunman that was ignored. His conviction was finally vacated in 2023 after the gunman's confession, leading to a wrongful conviction settlement, but he continues to fight for justice and recognition, reflecting on lost opportunities and ongoing struggles faced by exonerees.
