辩方援引新发现的潜在无罪证据,要求驳回1986年的谋杀罪定罪。 Defense seeks to dismiss 1986 murder conviction, citing newly discovered evidence of potential innocence.

辩护律师争辩说,1986年对Werner Kunkel的谋杀罪应驳回,声称检察官压制了表明他无罪的证据。 Defense lawyers argue that a 1986 murder conviction of Werner Kunkel should be dismissed, claiming prosecutors suppressed evidence that pointed to his innocence. 辩方援引了新发现的证人证词,表明受害人Gilbert Fassett在据称谋杀日期之后还活着,以及新的法医证据,这些证据与检方对案件的理论相矛盾。 The defense cites newly discovered witness statements showing the victim, Gilbert Fassett, was alive after the alleged murder date, and new forensic evidence that contradicts the prosecution's theory of the case. 他们声称,这侵犯了Kunkel根据布雷迪诉马里兰州案受到公正审判的权利。 They allege this violated Kunkel's right to a fair trial under Brady v. Maryland.
