May 04, 2008 Innocent in Jail; Tilman's Truth; Dr. Farmer

Scott Pelley reports on James Woodard, the longest serving inmate who was proven innocent with DNA evidence. It raises the question as to how many others are really innocent and in jail.
Also tonight, the mother of Pat Tillman, the NFL star who became an Army Ranger. Initially his tragic death was reported to be while acting in heroism. The subsequent discovery that he was killed when his own men accidentally shot him opened the floodgates of questions. Why did the military lie and was there blatant negligence ? Katie Couric reports.
Finally, meet Dr. Paul Farmer. This health care provider created a workable and successful charitable medical service in Haiti (Partners in Health). Now grown to touch nine countries and employing 6,000, Byron Pitts reports about how Dr. Farmer feels about the lives saved and the ones still needing saving.
