On September 17, 2014, the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals overturned Hannah Overton’s capital murder conviction. In 2006, Overton was given a life sentence for the death of her soon-to-be adopted 6-year-old son over salt poisoning. Overton’s appellate team included distinguished attorneys Cynthia Hujar-Orr, Gerry Goldstein, and John Raley.

Goldstein, Goldstein, Hilley, and Orr work diligently to have second-degree murder and involuntary manslaughter charges dismissed against Schlitterbahn owner and ride designer.
