Rafael Jones, who was convicted in 2014 of shooting and killing Philadelphia Police Officer Moses Walker, had that conviction overturned this week because of disgraced former detective Philip Nordo’s involvement in the case. KYW’s Crime and Justice Reporter Kristen Johanson explains what happened and why District Attorney Larry Krasner is fighting for an appeal.
