New DNA Evidence Frees Woman After 35-years in Prison
When
she was just 29-years-old, Cathy Woods (above, now 64) was convicted of stabbing
19-year-old nursing student, Michelle Mitchell, to death on the edge of the
University of Nevada campus in 1976. But in September of 2014, Washoe District
Judge, Patrick Flanagan, ordered Woods to appear at a retrial July 13, 2015.
However, Washoe County District Attorney, Chris Hicks, told a news conference

discovered DNA evidence and the continued investigation of this case exonerate
Cathy Woods of the murder of Michelle Mitchell,” Hicks said.
