<p>does anyone know a famous trial on the top of your head that consisted of a verdict that was later found out to be incorrect?? i cant find any online.. please help</p>
<p>By "incorrect," do you mean that the verdict was contradicted by another court? Or are you looking for a criminal trial where additional evidence was discovered? </p>
<p>The only one I can come up with at the moment is the Dred Scott supreme court case, but that's just an interpretation of the constitution that was revised in later trials.</p>
<p>i dont mean that it was contradicted .. just that people realized that the jury was wrong .. and they cant retry the defendant</p>
<p>Try the Emmett Till murder case:</p>
