The Case of James Harry Reyos: A Wrongful Conviction Revealed (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781973277378)

'I can with all sincerity - knowing that I am telling you the honest truth! - assert that I DID NOT KILL FATHER PATRICK RYAN! I AM TOTALLY INNOCENT!'These are the words of James Harry Reyos, who was convicted in 1983 of the murder of Father Patrick Ryan, a Catholic priest who was killed two years earlier. Sentenced to 38 years in prison, Reyos has consistently protested his innocence.There was no forensic evidence linking Reyos to the crime scene (a seedy motel) and in fact there is evidence showing that he was 200 miles away at the time of the murder.In fact the only evidence against him was a confession, made under the influence of drink and drugs, which has since been shown to be unreliable.Read the story of one of the most worrying criminal convictions in the United States.
