Petro: DNA testing vital to obtaining just convictions Jim Petro served as Ohio Attorney General from 2003 to 2007. As a state legislator, I served on the House committee that drafted Ohio’s current death penalty law. Later, as Ohio Attorney General, I monitored 18 executions. I believed that the criminal justice system does not make mistakes, especially in murder cases. However, with nearly 800 wrongful murder convictions identified in the U.S. since 1989, I now know that we must do much more to protect innocent people from wrongful conviction – and even wrongful execution.

The case of Tyrone Noling, who has been on Ohio’s death row for more than 20 years for crimes he did not commit, will be featured on the season premiere of “Death Row Stories” on the HLN network on April 19 at 9 p.m. ET/PST. No physical evidence ties Mr. Noling to the crimes, all of the principal witnesses against Mr. Noling have recanted their testimony, and key evidence of alternate suspects was suppressed at trial and has been ignored. In addition to tuning in on April 19, you can find more information about Mr. Noling’s case at www.tyronenoling.com.
