‘The Phantom’: The Unjust Execution of Carlos DeLuna

Innocence Project, June 11, 2021: ‘The Phantom’: The Unjust Execution of Carlos DeLuna

The Phantom draws from a series of interviews — including those with Mr. DeLuna’s siblings, his trial attorney, prosecutors, and eyewitnesses — casting tremendous doubt on Mr. DeLuna’s conviction and revealing new, disturbing evidence that points to his innocence. It follows a re-investigation into Mr. DeLuna’s claim about Mr. Hernandez by Columbia law professor Jim Liebman and his team, who later documented their comprehensive findings in a book titled The Wrong Carlos, an article in the Columbia Human Rights Law Review, and online.”
