Cynthia Orr Says DNA Exoneration Needs to Be Reformed
As reported by the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, Attorney Cynthia Orr said she thinks DNA exoneration practices should be reformed, saying the victims and those falsely imprisoned deserve a better system.
Although the Innocence Protection Act of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure, which provides for DNA testing and preservation of evidence, is an important step toward assuring wrongful convictions are overturned, other reforms are needed, Orr wrote.
