DNA Clears Man Who Killed Himself
"A homeless man who killed himself in a police holding cell hours after he was charged with rape has been cleared of the crime through DNA evidence, police said. Forensic evidence collected after the alleged rape does not genetically match that of Wade Evan Deemer, who hanged himself with his shirt at the West Chester police station in August, investigators said Tuesday."
"It's not his DNA," police Sgt. Thomas Yarnall said. "It appears that he did not do it."
