About Romell Broom
- Romell Broom (born June 4, 1956) is an American man convicted of murder, kidnapping, and rape.
- He was convicted in 1984 of abducting and killing Tryna Middleton, age 14, who was walking home from a football game in East Cleveland, Ohio.
- In 2003, Broom accepted an offer from the state of Ohio for a DNA test to prove his innocence—however, the test results failed to exonerate him.
- The clemency hearing concluded that "the DNA report does not indicate an exact match, but does indicate that the likelihood of Broom being the donor is 1 in 2.3 million.
- Otherwise stated, eight or nine other black males in the country would have the same profile." Broom has repeatedly requested independent DNA retesting and a change of legal team. Broom also has convictions for robbery, aggravated robbery and four counts of kidnap of a male child.
