Former Texas Prosecutor Denies Misconduct in Innocent Man's Conviction

Faces possible criminal charges of his own

A former Texas district attorney is choking back tears as he recalls a prosecution that wrongfully sent a Texas man to prison for 25 years.

Ken Anderson calls the case of Michael Morton his "worst nightmare."

Morton was convicted in the slaying of his wife Christine in 1987 but exonerated in 2011 following new DNA tests.
