The Wrongful Conviction of Mark Maxson
On August 29, 1993, six-year-old Lindsey Murdoch went to the corner store on the South Side of Chicago to purchase some candy after his grandmother had given him a dollar. He then returned home and sat on his front porch eating a tootsie roll. This would be the last time his grandmother would see him alive.
30-year-old Mark Maxson, would go on to be wrongfully convicted for the murder and served 25 years in prison before being exonerated.
