The Arizona Supreme Court overturned Lemuel Prion's 1999 convictions and death sentence for the slaying of 19-year-old Diana Vicari in October 1992.
Prion's case now goes back to Pima County Superior Court for a possible retrial.
The Supreme Court's unanimous ruling said the trial judge should have permitted Prion's lawyer to introduce evidence indicating that another man may have committed the murder.
