A man who was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole nearly 16 years ago may walk free Monday after being exonerated by a new analysis of DNA evidence.

Robert Dewey, 51, was convicted in Mesa County, Colo. for the 1994 rape and murder of Palisade resident Jacie Taylor. According to the Denver Post, Dewey has maintained his innocence over the years and repeatedly asked the court to order a retesting of the shaky DNA evidence used to convict him.

Blood found on Dewey's shirt was speculated to have come from Taylor, but an expert witness testified during Dewey's trial, it also could have come from approximately 45 percent of the Caucasian population.

Then-Mesa County District Judge Charles Buss, who handed down Dewey's life sentence in 1995, reportedly said, "I am happy to impose it on you."

I've been wanting to say that, but for some reason I can't. He just looks like he deserves to be in jail even if he's innocent.
hopefully they found the black guy that did it

The right is more virtuous than the left. They have twice as many virtues because they have double the standards.

At least throw an innocent one into jail to make the community feel safe again.

I know how your attitude would go over during my time and I just stated what would be done about it. It was a fact of life at the time. ...
