When another man confessed to the string of murders for which Davontae Sanford had been convicted, he felt that his long nightmare was over.

Arrested at age 14, Sanford had spent nine years in the Michigan corrections system. Now, with his conviction overturned, it appeared that he could once again return to his community and begin to piece his life together again.
