Former bank manager Ronald Dalton never got to watch his three young
children grow up. In 1989 he was convicted for a crime that never
happened. His wife, Brenda, was later ruled to have choked to death on
breakfast cereal not strangled as a pathologist had initially claimed.
Dalton's daughter, Alison, was in kindergarten when he was charged with
second-degree murder in 1988. He attended her high school graduation on
June 26, 2000, two days after his conviction was finally overturned.
