Darrell Lee Clark and Cain Joshua Storey were teenagers when they went on trial in January 1998 in the shooting death of their friend Brian Bowling, 15, at a party in 1996, the nonprofit Georgia Innocence Project, also known as GIP, said in a statement.Floyd County police at first believed Storey’s account of the shooting, which was that he was in the room with Bowling when he died in an accident playing Russian roulette.However, at the urging of Bowling’s distraught family, the GIP said, police upgraded Storey’s charge to murder days after having spoken to a party host, and they connected Clark to the case as a co-defendant, even though he had a corroborated alibi.State prosecutors argued the two teens conspired to kill Bowling in an act of revenge, the GIP said.The Rome Judicial Circuit district attorney’s office agreed that Clark’s conviction should be overturned and dismissed all charges against him, exonerating him in Bowling’s death, the GIP said.“They were willing to hear out what the podcasters had to say and, eventually, the attorneys and sort of re-evaluated what the evidence actually was and came to the conclusion that, frankly, the first time around, everybody got it wrong.”A motion was filed arguing that Storey was innocent, his attorney, Luke Martin, said Monday."
