Waller to become 12th Dallas exoneree since 2001

In a hearing today at 11:30 a.m., James Waller will become the 12th Dallas County man proven innocent by DNA testing since 2001. The Innocence Project and Dallas County District Attorneys Office will agree on findings that show Waller’s actual innocence.

Waller will need a governor’s pardon or a writ from the Court of Criminal Appeals before the exoneration is considered official.
