WRONGFUL CONVICTION WITH JASON FLOM Tells the Story of Mississippi's Eddie Lee Howard

Eddie Lee Howard, a Black man, was convicted and sentenced to death in 1994 for the rape and murder of 82-year-old Georgia Kemp in Columbus, MS. The only physical evidence against him came in the form of bite marks, not visible to the naked eye, found by the since-discredited forensic dentist/junk scientist Michael West.

On January 8, 2021, Howard was exonerated based on post-DNA tests and alibi witnesses, ending his 26-year nightmare behind bars.
