A motion to take another look at a 20-year-old murder case is moving forward in Allen County Common Pleas Court. Members of the Innocence Project appeared in court Tuesday, on behalf of Cory Holland, for a status conference. A DNA motion was filed in January to test evidence from Holland's murder of Dorothy Miller in 1999. The state has agreed to test items such as a piece of the murder weapon, Miller's clothing, the material under her nails, and pieces of a cash register to see if biological evidence exists. Innocence Project would pay for out of state testing, but the state will differ to the decision of the judge on where materials will be tested.
