Huwe Burton speaks with reporters at the Bronx County Hall of Justice on Thursday, Jan. 24, 2019, after his conviction was dismissed in the 1989 killing of his mother. Burton was 16 when he was accused of stabbing his mother to death, then staging the scene to make it appear an intruder had sexually assaulted and killed her. He insisted for decades he didn't commit the crime. After 30 years - 19 of them in prison - Burton was cleared of the charges Thursday after Bronx prosecutors said they would no longer stand behind his murder conviction. (AP Photo/Jennifer Peltz)
