: Slaw.caDonald Marshall Jr. (1953-2009)
By Shaunna Mireau
A Canadian, a Mi’kmaq, a man wrongfully convicted of murder. Mr. Marshall passed August 6, 2009. The CBC news has good coverage of the story. Wikipedia’s page on Mr. Marshall is also up to date.
The CBC news archive contains good links and summaries of wrongful convictions.
It should always be disturbing when justice is denied, delayed or miscarried. Fortunately or unfortunately, justice is in the hands of humans. Mistakes are inevitable, but will hopefully decrease as humans learn to live with technology. DNA testing, video surveillance, and advances in forensic science offer hope.
Rest in peace Mr. Marshall.
