Jesse Barnes was just 17 when his 15-year-old girlfriend, Cynthia Vaughn, was found dead with multiple stab wounds in 1971. Jesse was interrogated and asked again and again if he killed Cynthia, to the point where he eventually confessed. There was nothing to corroborate his confession, and Jesse maintains his innocence despite the admission. After serving 40 years in prison, Jesse was released based only on a sentencing error. He shares his side of the story with “True Crime News.”
