In 2002, Lavone Hill was sentenced to life in prison for a double murder in Detroit, Michigan. He was exonerated in 2024 based on evidence that another man committed the crime, new witnesses who said Hill was not the gunman, and the prosecution’s failure to disclose that the lead detective had been suspended at the time he testified.
