More than 19 years after he first appeared in court on charges that he murdered his wife, Jensen was â virtually â back in front of a judge Thursday after the Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled in March that Jensen deserves a new trial and that a âvoice from the graveâ letter and incriminating statements from his wife Julie Jensen cannot be used by the prosecution.
Kenosha County Circuit Court Judge Chad Kerkman vacated Jensenâs conviction and reinstated his bond.
Jensen appeared through video conferencing from Dodge Correctional Institution in Waupun, where he has been imprisoned since 2008.
Jensen was originally charged in February 2002 for the death of his wife Julie in 1998. He was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole in 2008, prosecutors convincing a jury during a six-week trial that Jensen poisoned his wife with antifreeze and then suffocating her at their Pleasant Prairie home.

KENOSHA, Wis. (AP) A judge has vacated the conviction of a man who is heading back to trial in Kenosha County on charges of killing his wife with antifreeze.
The Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled last month that Mark Jensen deserves a new trial in the 1998 death of his wife Julie Jensen. The high court ruled a letter Jensen s wife wrote incriminating him in the event something should happen to her cannot be used by the prosecution.
Jensen has maintained his innocence with his attorneys arguing that Julie Jensen was depressed and killed herself after framing her husband.
