Christopher Dunn has spent more than 30 years in prison for a 1990 murder he did not commit in St. Louis. The two witnesses whose testimony led to his conviction have recanted, leading to a dramatic moment in 2020, when a Missouri judge ruled: “This court does not believe that any jury would now convict Christopher Dunn under these facts.” Yet Dunn remains in prison on a life sentence, doomed to die behind bars. Christopher Dunn, his wife Kira, and attorney Kent Gipson discuss the case and why Missouri law is uniquely blind to Dunn’s case for innocence.
