Instead, it was the beginning of a 17-year limbo. Travis County DA Rosemary Lehmberg dismissed the charges against Springsteen and Scott in 2009 but issued a public statement affirming her belief in their guilt. No exoneration. No declaration of innocence. Just a release with conditions and a public accusation that followed these men for nearly two decades. The human toll extended beyond the courtroom. Michael Scott’s marriage dissolved during incarceration. Maurice Pierce, who entered the system at 15 and spent three years jailed without trial, was fatally shot by Austin police during a 2010 confrontation at age 34. Forrest Welborn, never indicted despite being charged, lived under the weight of the accusation for over 25 years. Part 4 examines the period between release and exoneration — a phase of wrongful conviction cases that receives insufficient attention in criminal justice analysis. The formal declaration of innocence came in February 2026. For some, it came too late.
