Woman who spent 15 YEARS on death row after being wrongly convicted of killing her abusive husband speaks out about the horror of her ordeal - and slams the judge who sentenced her

  • Michelle Byron, 57, was sentenced to death in 2000 after her physically abusive husband - who once made her drink rat poison - was killed
  • The Mississippi woman maintained her innocence, and her son even confessed to the crime
  • Her defense attorney 'did a horrible job', according to a former state Supreme Court justice who pushed for the case to be re-examined
  • After her sentence was overturned just hours before her execution, Michelle finally walked free - and is adjusting to a new world outside
  • Because she is still a felon and suffers from Lupus, it is unlikely that she will be able to find a job, and currently lives with her brother
