Krone faced the death penalty and a twenty-one year term of imprisonment for a murder he did not commit. After being convicted in 1992, he served over ten years in prison before DNA testing revealed the identity of the real perpetrator. Krone was released and exonerated of all charges in 2002.
Sheri Johnson, professor at Cornell Law School and co-founder of Cornell's Death Penalty Project, will introduce Krone at his talk this Wednesday.
