FILE - In this Oct. 14, 2019 file photo, April Alley, front, daughter of Sedley Alley, hugs a member of her legal counsel in a Memphis, Tenn., courtroom.  Attorneys for April Alley asked a state appeals court on Wednesday, Feb. 3, 2021 to let her test DNA evidence in the case to try to prove her father's  innocence.  Sedley Alley died by lethal injection in 2006 for the murder two decades earlier of Marine Lance Cpl. Suzanne Collins. Alley confessed to the crime, but later said the confession was coerced. His execution should have been the end of things, but in 2019 investigators in a Missouri murder case contacted the Innocence Project about a possible connection between a suspect there and Collins.
