Conrad Truman ka naam 2012 mein apni patni, Heidy Truman, ke maut ke baad surkhiyaan bana tha. Heidy ki maut unke Orem, Utah, ke ghar mein ek goli lagne se hui thi, aur Conrad par unke hatya ka aarop laga. 2014 mein, Conrad ko pehle degree ke hatya ka doshi thehraya gaya aur 16 saal se jeevan var ki saza sunayi gayi. Lekin, 2017 mein naye sabooton aur galat maap-ton ke kaaran, unki saja radd kar di gayi aur unhe riha kar diya gaya.
Riha hone ke baad, Conrad ne apne upar lagaye gaye aaropon ke khilaf kanooni kadam uthaya. Unhone daawa kiya ki prosecutor ne jaan bujhkar galat maap-ton ka pramaan diya tha, jisse unhe galat tarah se doshi thehraya gaya. Ek lower federal court ne prosecutor ko civil rights suit se mukt kar diya tha, lekin 10th Circuit Court of Appeals ne is faisle ko palat diya, aur
kaha ki Truman ke aarop “arbitrary executive action that shocks the conscience” ko darshate hain.
Is kanooni ladai ke baad, Conrad Truman ne apni niji zindagi ko media ki chakaachaund se door rakha hai. Unki vartamaan sthiti aur aaj kal ke jeevan ke baare mein spasht jaankari uplabdh nahi hai. Aise kai log, jo aise traumatic anubhavon se guzarte hain, apni niji zindagi ko surakshit rakhne ka prayaas karte hain, taaki wo apne ateet se aage badh saken aur ek nayi shuruaat kar saken.
Conrad Truman ka maamla ek misaal hai ki kaise galat saboot aur galat jaankari kisi vyakti ki zindagi ko prabhavit kar sakti hai. Is maamle ne kanooni prakriya mein satarkta aur sahi jaankari ki aavashyakta ko ubharke rakha hai, taaki anyaay se bacha ja sake.
