"The horror inflicted on Dean and his family and community is hard to wrap your mind around," Ohio Innocence Project Director Mark Godsey said."The way the authorities pushed through a conviction and then fought back and refused to admit a mistake was so disappointing. Nothing can repay Dean for the horror."
"Justice prevailed in this case, although it took a long, long, long time for that to occur," said Petro, who co-authored a book with his wife Nancy about wrongful convictions. It is unclear if Miami Township or Moore will seek to appeal the case or when Gillispie might receive payment.Gillispie steadfastly maintained his innocence from day one. In 2021, a Montgomery County judge declared Gillispie a wrongfully imprisoned person.
