Early life

Jonathan Irons was born in 1980 in the United States of America. Nothing is much known about his early life, parents, and educational background.

Stotler, who was living in O’Fallon was armed like his assailant.

Jonathan Irons’ Career

Irons was caught by the police as the main suspect who illegally broke down into Stotler’s house. However, he kept on insisting that he was not even present at the crime scene, and was misidentified. Though his words were taken seriously and he was convicted for 50 years in prison.

In March 2020, after hearing Jonathan’s testimony, a Missouri Judge, Daniel Green vacated his conviction. Green revealed a fingerprint report, which was taken from the Stotler’s house. The fingerprint report was never presented in the court by Iron’s defense team. According to the report, the fingerprint neither belonged to Jonathan nor the crime victim, Stotler.

Daniel Green further revealed that if the fingerprint would have submitted earlier, Iron’s defense would have surely received unassailable forensic evidence, that would back Iron’s innocence strongly. After proving Iron’s case weak and circumstantial at best, the Missouri Judge, Daniel Green cleared all his charges.

However, the St. Charles County’s lead prosecutor, Tim Lohmar could retry the case, but he didn’t decline his case. As a result, Irons was freed from the Jefferson City Correctional Center on Wednesday, July 22, 2020.
