On December 28, 2007, a young man was shot and killed outside an apartment complex in Cincinnati, OH. Ten days later, an eyewitness identified Marty Levingston as the gunman, and eventually, a jailhouse snitch would point to him too. Though the eyewitness would eventually express doubt at trial, Marty was sentenced to 15 to life for a murder he always claimed he did not commit.

If Marty is still fighting for justice, your voice matters. Consider sharing this case on social media, signing any active petitions, or contacting your representatives about wrongful conviction reform.
