prison have been linked to two other murders with the help of newly discovered DNA samples, which led to the exoneration of another man who wrongfully served 37 years in prison for the rape and murder of Barbara Grams in 1983.
"These two men not only robbed me, but they robbed a 7-year-old little girl of her mother," said Linda Sheffield, Lansen's niece, during Thursday's news conference. In 2018, Warren's office created a Conviction Review Unit to help overturn and prevent wrongful convictions. Two years later, Robert DuBoise, who spent 37 years in prison for Grams' rape and murder, was exonerated."Our investigation found DNA evidence that established Robert did not murder Barbara Grams; however, that DNA evidence did provide new leads and launched a fresh investigation," Warren said.
