“The order to vacate the convictions of Clifford Williams and his nephew, Nathan Myers, stems from a recommendation made by Florida’s first-ever conviction integrity review unit, set up by State Attorney Melissa Nelson in 2018. At its heart, the recommendation found that defense lawyers for Williams and Myers failed to present evidence to the jury that would’ve contradicted the single eyewitness prosecutors relied upon to convict the men of murdering Jeanette Williams in her bedroom in 1976.“
