Alabama ‘wife killer’ set to be freed over ‘junk’ bitemark evidence after 40 years in prison
Charles McCrory is set to be released after 40 years in prison for the 1985 murder of his wife. His conviction relied on 'bite mark evidence' that has since been debunked as unreliable. The decision follows legal challenges to the forensic evidence used in the original trial.
Charles McCrory was convicted of beating Julie Bonds McCrory to death in 1985 in a case that hung almost entirely on now-debunked “bite mark evidence” that prosecutors said he made in a fit of rage, according to AL.com.
