Dallas Morning News editorial:  "Last March, the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals concluded that “false expert testimony” helped put Graf away for life and that he was due a new trial. A consulting fire scientist said the original investigators showed little understanding of how arson fires burn. Later, a panel of experts convened by Texas State Fire Marshal Chris Connealy found that modern science could not support the arson finding made by one of the state’s own investigators in the Graf case. The fire’s origin, the experts said, should be reclassified as undetermined."
