Crime Seen: Advances in DNA Testing
After being identified in a lineup in 1984, Edward Honaker was sent to
prison for rape, although mitigating information raised doubts about his
guilt. Ten years later, Centurion Ministries—an
organization that reviews claims of innocence by convicts—had the case
reopened, which led to Honaker’s exoneration. This program spotlights recent
advances in DNA analysis, such as PCR and DQ Alpha tests, and addresses the
sometimes faulty nature of eyewitness identification. (26 minutes)
