What happened to those who spent 15 years in unjust prison?

According to reports, on July 14, 2000, Yang's mother-in-law was found dead at home, and Yang was taken away by the police that day. In June of the same year, the Intermediate People's Court of Wuhu City, Anhui Province sentenced Yang to death for "committing intentional homicide" with a two-year suspension.

Yang appealed, and in February of the following year, the Higher People's Court of Anhui Province made a final ruling and upheld the original judgment. In the past 16 years, Anhui Provincial Procuratorate has put forward three suggestions for retrial.

Fifteen years later, the Higher People's Court of Anhui Province retried the case and found that the color of the clothes provided by the witness did not match the color of the clothes involved, the clothes involved were not extracted, and the evidence of criminal motive was insufficient. This also confirms that the evidence of Yang's crime time is doubtful.

Until 20 16 1 1, the Higher People's Court of Anhui Province decided to retry Yang's case, and in the same year 1 1 3, Yang was acquitted, arguing that the facts of Yang's intentional homicide in the original judgment were unclear and the evidence was insufficient.
