I'm sorry, but this is different. Most of the people advocating for their being guilty are people with no real qualifications or expertise in any field, and even if they were guilty the oritinal trial was still a load of *beep* Any jackass can write a blogspot, blink on crime is biased and dishonest, and Just because ONE guy on death row doesnn't trust them doesn't mean it isn't stupid to think they are guilty. The forensic evidence points towards someone else

Nope, The court system is set up to make it hard to overturn convictions. There are not enough resources to provide fair trials and a good defense to everyone. So they generally try to get people to plead guilty before a trial or face stiff penalties. They are more focused on winning than seeking the truth.
