In a decision released Thursday afternoon, justices overturned Kenneth Osburn's conviction in the August 2006 slaying of Casey Crowder. Justices found that police interviews used in Osbourn's January 2008 trial should have been suppressed as he had no chance to consult with a lawyer.
Crowder was a senior at Watson Chapel High School. Her body was found in woods a few miles from where her sport-utility vehicle ran out of gas on U.S. Highway 65 near Dumas.
