A wrongfully convicted man who spent close to 20 years in prison has filed a lawsuit against the city of Goldsboro, N.C. In the suit, he claims local police officers did not disclose evidence that would have exonerated him more than 15 years ago. The plaintiff claims he was told the evidence, mainly the rape kit, had been destroyed in 1994 when in fact it was sitting in the Goldsboro police station untested. He was finally freed in 2007.
