Sandra 'Sandy' Hemme, a 63-year-old woman, was recently acquitted of murder charges in a Missouri court after serving 40 years in prison for a crime she didn't commit. The new evidence presented by law enforcement authorities revealed that the true perpetrator of the crime was a deceased police officer named Michael Holman. Hemme was coerced into a false confession back in the 1980s due to flawed police procedures and manipulation, leading to her wrongful imprisonment. This case highlights the longest wrongful imprisonment of a female in American judicial history.
