Tried As An Adult

Despite the fact that Truscott was just a teenager at the time of the crime, and that he claimed his innocence the entire time the trial went on, he would still be tried as an adult. The prosecution claims that he hadn’t dropped her off but he had actually taken her into the woods, sexually assaulted her and then strangling her to death. He would spend 10 years in jail, finally getting a decade later on parole, but the entire time he had been working on clearing his name.
