Pursley, who has been imprisoned for more than two decades for a murder conviction obtained with shoddy ballistic evidence, is getting a chance to prove his innocence with a new trial. The outcome of the trial that starts Thursday, Jan. 10, 2019, in Winnebago County could help pave a new path to challenge convictions that relied on ballistic analysis once thought to be infallible. He's been free on bail since April 2017. (AP Photo/Ivan Moreno File)
