A Minnesota county prosecutor said Tuesday that convictions in six different murder cases were fair despite the involvement of an embattled medical examiner whose work was called into question after a federal judge described his testimony in one high-profile case as “unreliable, misleading and inaccurate."
Tuesday's announcement on findings related to seven murder convictions largely concludes a yearslong review of cases handled by Dr. Michael McGee, a former Ramsey County medical examiner. In one of the seven cases, which involved a more recent plea agreement, Ramsey County Attorney John Choi said the findings are being shared with the defense team and the legal process will continue to play out.
