Myon Burrell is greeted by supporters and media outside the Minnesota Correctional Facility – Stillwater, following his release on December 15, 2020. Burrell had served 18 years for the 2002 murder of 11-year-old Tyesha Edwards, a crime he consistently denied committing. His sentence was commuted by the Minnesota Board of Pardons after an investigation raised serious doubts about his conviction. The gathering outside the Stillwater, Minnesota facility marks a significant moment in a case that drew national attention to issues of wrongful conviction and racial justice.
