Lathierial Boyd is an American who spent 23 years in prison for murder, whose conviction was eventually overturned.〔〔 Boyd did not match the witness descriptions from the murder. He was fifty pounds heavier and several inches taller than the witness description. He lacked the facial hair witnesses described. Further, he had an alibi, as he was staying at the home of his sister and brother-in-law. His brother-in-law, a deputy sheriff, described seeing him sleeping when he went to the bathroom at 1:30 am, shortly before the murder. His case received world-wide attention when Richard Zuley, the detective he blamed for his wrongful conviction, was under fire for his use of extended interrogation techniques that have been characterized as torture when he was an interrogator at the Guantanamo Bay detention camps, in Cuba.〔〔〔〔 The only witness to identify Boyd as the shooter was Ricky Warner, the other shooting victim—and he was shot in back, and fell unconscious before his body hit the ground, as the shots severed his spinal cord.〔〔 Anita Alvarez of the Conviction Integrity Unit of the Cook County State's Attorney's Office determined Boyd was innocent after a routine review of his case history.〔〔 He received his certificate of innocence on September 25, 2013. Boyd's conviction due to Zuley's questionable means for assembling evidence lead Alvarez to subpoena the entire history of complaints against Zuley.〔 Boyd is suing Zuley.〔 == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lathierial Boyd」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
