A Huge Compensation
Although it would take years, Truscott’s case would be taken on by The Association in Defense of the Wrongly Convicted, which would eventually turn up evidence that would finally clear his name. It would be found that Lynne had been killed during a time that Truscott could not have done the murder. Finally, after 4 decades of working to clear his name from this entire case, Steven Truscott was declared guilt free of any wrongdoing in the death of Lynne Harper. He was later on compensated by the government, receiving a little over $5 million for the false conviction which basically ruined his life for over 50 years.
