Law review: Texas executed innocent man

According to a book length article in the Columbia Human Rights Law Review, Columbia University law professor James Liebman says that Carlos De Luna was executed for a murder committed by another man.

. . .29 years after De Luna was arrested, Liebman and his team published a mammoth report in the Human Rights Law Review that concludes De Luna paid with his life for a crime he likely did not commit. Shoddy police work, the prosecution's failure to pursue another suspect, and a weak defense combined to send De Luna to death row, they argued.
"I would say that across the board, there was nonchalance," ... "It looked like a common case, but we found that there was a very serious claim of innocence."
