A new “IMPACT x Nightline” episode on Hulu explores the overturned conviction of Kaitlyn Conley, who was previously found guilty of killing her ex-boyfriend’s mother. The episode, titled “Little Miss Innocent Freed,” streams exclusively on Hulu starting Thursday, February 20.
Here’s the Lowdown: 31-year-old Kaitlyn Conley was convicted of manslaughter in the 2015 death of Mary Yoder. Conley always claimed she was innocent. In a surprising turn of events, a New York court recently overturned the conviction, and Conley was released. It is not yet known if she will face a new trial.
What This Means Now: The case is back in the spotlight, raising questions about whether Conley was wrongly convicted. The “IMPACT x Nightline” special, led by “Nightline” co-anchor Byron Pitts, features new interviews and reporting, along with footage from the 2024 docuseries “Little Miss Innocent: Passion. Poison. Prison.”
The Bigger Picture: This episode provides an up-to-date look at a complex and controversial case. Interviews include Luciann Gould (a former patient and friend of Mary Yoder), Todd Carville (Oneida County district attorney), Sunny Hostin (former federal prosecutor and co-host of “The View”), and Rocco LaDuca (co-host of Utica, New York, radio show “Talk of The Town”). The special, “IMPACT x Nightline: Little Miss Innocent Freed” is streaming on Thursday, February 20, exclusively on Hulu.
