Missouri murder conviction reversed after 43 years in prison
An appellate court ordered the release of Sandra Hemme, who was imprisoned 43 years for murder in Missouri. The judge said she is innocent, but the attorney general seeks review and delay. Key evidence included misused psychiatric treatment, missing exculpatory FBI results, and a discredited officer's involvement. Hemme, now 64, could be freed within 30 days unless retried.
