Ohio prisoner released pending new trial after 20 years on death row

D'Ambrosio was convicted of murdering 19-year-old Tony Klann in 1988 and

dumping his body in a creek. But in 2006, a federal judge ruled that

prosecutors withheld from D'Ambrosio and his attorneys 10 key pieces of

evidence that might have exonerated him. A new trial is scheduled to start

May 4.

Last week, a judge set bond at 10 % of $50,000 and agreed to allow

D'Ambrosio to live with a Cleveland-area woman who befriended him while he

was in prison.
