"I rather doubt that the strand of hair was the only evidence introduced in the case. Heck, maybe it was my hair. That doesn't exonerate the man convicted of the murder"

Thank you! Jeez, I know they didn't have DNA testing in 1989, but I seriously doubt they would sentence someone to death because he had hair that "looked like" one found at the scene. I'm sure there was much more to it. I still don't know how DNA "exonerates" people anyway. Just because it wasn't from that particular guy doesn't prove he wasn't at the scene. Maybe he had accomplices.

Please read my post at #9 http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1930803/posts?page=9#9

It contains Retired Ranger T. Walker's Statement. The article from the Henderson Daily News just above his statement was written in response to a letter he had sent to the Henderson Daily News about an AP article they had published the week prior.

Walker has the article he had cut out of the paper, but we could not find it in the H.D.N. archives. We searched google using the title and it came up from the mercurynews.com web site.

Unaware that mercurynews.com must be excerpted, I posted the entire mercurynews.com article and the mechanism of excerpting most of the article also removed the parts I re-posted in #9.
