Three men were wrongfully convicted of the crime and spent 26 years in prison before being exonerated. One of them was killed by a fellow inmate.The case was reopened after Lauro's DNA matched evidence from the crime scene, public records, and other identifying information. Forensic examinations revealed that Lauro lived near where Ireland's body was found at the time of the crime..
