The lead detective harassed multiple witnesses and mishandled the case to such a degree that the trial court had no choice but to grant Mr. Miller a new trial after he was convicted in 2003.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\n    !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n    {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n            n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n      if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n      n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n      t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n      s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,document,'script',\n            'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n    fbq('init', '1675583609181613');\n    fbq('track', 'PageView');\n    \/\/fbq('track', 'ViewContent');\n    \/\/ IMPT: fb tracks pageview events properly out of the gate\n    \/\/ HOWEVER, it does not trigger ViewContent, this is done in app.jsx\n  <\/script><\/p>\n<p><script async defer src=\"https:\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
