Trust me, I don't like this story one bit and Florida has things to fix, but in the end the guy was innocent which is what the police investigation determined.
This is a pretty good interview with the police chief where he is very clear that the police did a good job in their timely investigation:

The initial investigation was half assed. The fact that the follow up investigation brought up enough evidence to get this case to a point where a guilty verdict was well within the realm of possibility speaks volumes to how poor the local police performed.
