What We Have Learned From the Cameron Todd Willingham Case 

Cameron Todd Willingham was executed in 2004 for setting his home on fire, resulting in the deaths of his three young children. The case gained renewed attention in 2009 as a result of investigative reporter David Grann's article in The New Yorker, which described contradictions and controversies surrounding the case.
