#487 Guest Host Conor Hall with Angel Bumpass

On January 16, 2009, Linda Bonner found her husband Franklin duct-taped to a chair in their Chattanooga, TN home, with tape over his nose and mouth and signs of blunt force trauma. He was dead from suffocation. Police found fingerprints on the duct tape, but no matches were found. Nine years later, in 2019, 23-year-old Angel Bumpass was arrested after failing to appear in Kentucky court for a traffic ticket. Her fingerprints were taken upon her arrest and automatically searched against unidentified crime scene prints. Police said her fingerprints matched two partial prints on the duct tape from Franklin Bonner’s case. Even though she was only 13 years old at the time of the crime, Angel was convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison.  To learn more and get involved, visit: https://lavaforgood.com/podcast/398-wrongful-conviction-junk-science-fingerprint-evidence/ https://www.instagram.com/justiceforangel/?hl=en https://www.tiktok.com/@thatsangelb https://www.imdb.com/title/tt26901702/ Wrongful Conviction  is a production of Lava for Good™ Podcasts in association with Signal Co.
