Second Degree Murder

Sentence

15 Years to Life

Horace Roberts was convicted of murdering a fellow employee he was having an affair with. When he lied about the affair, because it was against company policy, that was twisted into a theory that he was also lying about not killing her.  Ultimately, DNA on a watch found next to the body led to the actual killers and Horace was released after spending 20 years in prison for a crime he did not commit.
