If this is true, I'm of the opinion that the cops involved should do some serious time. I'm not talking about a situation where a decent cop screws up an investigation, or if circumstantial evidence just points to the wrong guy... But if they knowingly withheld evidence in order to pin a crime on an innocent man, they should do 25 years too.
Since the evidence was time-stamped and dated, it would seem that the arresting cops performed their job well. It would have to have been the prosecution staff that suppressed the evidence. A an upwardly-motivated DA perhaps?

The cops should have eliminated him as a suspect, but their "mistake" was compounded by the DA.
