32. The Wrongful Conviction of Kristine Bunch

She spent 17 years paying a debt to society that she didn't owe after being wrongfully convicted of the arson that killed her toddler son. But Kristine Bunch never stopped fighting for truth and even after her release, she continued the fight to help others that have been wrongfully convicted.  Background music by Not Notoriously Coordinated  Please follow us on Instagram, X, Facebook, and Youtube for the latest news on this case.
