DNA Test Shows Wrong Guy Convicted Spends 30 yrs Behind Bars - Why We Need Mandatory DNA Testing for State Prison Population!

Remarkable article:

The article shows why we need to get past the prosecutorial testostrone, do DNA testing on those insisting they did not commit a crime for which they were convicted where there is DNA evidence. The fair and impartial administration of justice requires it! The prosecutors should not stand behind the convenient excuse of a defense lawyer not requesting/failing to request a DNA test.
