This Man Was Jailed As A Teenager For 17 Years Based On Tainted Evidence
John Bunn was only 14 when he was arrested and jailed for the murder of Rolando Neischer.
The case had been tried, a jury had been picked, and a testimony was given all in one day, NY Daily News shared.
He had reportedly been convicted based on tainted evidence produced by ex-Detective Louis Scarcella.
His conviction was eventually thrown out in 2016 and a new trial was ordered after Scarcella’s actions were discovered.
