After 15 Years Behind Bars, Brown Found Innocent of Murder

May 2, 2011 — Debra Brown, a Logan woman convicted of the 1993 murder of her friend and employer and imprisoned since 1995, has been found innocent by Judge Michael DiReda, thanks to the efforts of the Rocky Mountain Innocence Center, a nonprofit organization that works to “correct and prevent the conviction of innocent people.” The Center has worked on Brown’s matter since 2002.
