Logline: Kaitlyn Conley was previously convicted of poisoning her ex-boyfriend’s mother to death, but in a shocking twist, a New York court overturned her conviction, allowing her to walk free and leaving some to question whether she was wrongfully convicted.

Extended Logline: This week, “IMPACT x Nightline” reports on Kaitlyn Conley. The 31-year-old former receptionist was convicted of manslaughter — but maintained her innocence — in the 2015 killing of Mary Yoder, her former boss and the mother of her ex-boyfriend. Earlier this month, a New York court overturned the conviction, allowing her to walk free. It is currently unknown if she will be retried. “IMPACT x Nightline” breaks down Conley’s case in new interviews and reporting, as well as footage from ABC News Studios’ 2024 docuseries “Little Miss Innocent: Passion. Poison. Prison.”
