[Nettime-bold] Ohio Man Cleared by DNA Evidence


Judged Genetically
Ohio Man Cleared by DNA Evidence
Associated Press

DNA evidence has cleared a man who has spent 13 years in prison after
being convicted of rape. Michael Green, 35, was convicted of raping a
nurse who was being treated for liver cancer at the Cleveland Clinic.
She died after testifying at Green's trial that he was her attacker.
Green, a former employee at the research hospital, was sentenced to 20
to 50 years in prison. However, tests showed that DNA on a washcloth
used by the attacker to clean up and found at the crime scene in 1988
didn't match Green's DNA.
