From article at link:

In the Associated Press report released last week, new details emerged over Myron Burrell’s incarceration. Burrell was convicted and given a life sentence for the killing of Edwards after a swift police investigation that allegedly produced no DNA evidence, no gun, and no fingerprints to tie Burrell to the crime. The case largely revolved around Burrell’s “rival” who accounted for his presence at the crime scene in what is now described to be a “coached” testimony.

On top of that, there is no record that Burrell’s alibi was ever checked, although the 16-year-old maintained that he was with friends on the day of the shooting. Now, it’s come to light that alibis were never questioned for the case and evidence seems to have gone missing, though leaked footage shows the chief homicide detective taking cash for information.

Furthermore, your candidate has been evasive all week long on this issue, still saying that she intends to review new evidence. She's had years to do this, and she hasn't.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
