A Florida woman walked out of a New Jersey prison on Tuesday night, hours after the New Jersey Supreme Court overturned her 2016 murder conviction in the 1991 death of her 5-year-old son, according to reports.
Lodzinski, 54, had been detained inside the correctional facility ever since January 2017, when she was sentenced to a 30-year term behind bars with no possibility of parole, the outlet reported. Prior to that, she had been held in custody, awaiting trial, since her 2014 arrest.
But the court ruled Tuesday that prosecutors had failed to produce enough evidence to prove Lodzinski had intentionally caused the death of young Timothy Wiltsey, according to The Associated Press.
