#534 Ben Bowlin with Robert Johnson

In the evening of April 14, 1996, Edward Binion was shot in the head during a home invasion in Chicago, IL. After a series of arrests, since-disgraced Cook County Detectives William Moser and James O’Brien were led to 16-year-old Robert Johnson. Johnson was with his grandmother at the time of the shooting and no physical evidence implicated him. Nevertheless, he was convicted and sentenced to 80 years in prison.  To learn more and get involved, please visit: https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-roberts-journey-to-freedom https://lavaforgood.com/podcast/211-jason-flom-with-marcus-wiggins/ https://lavaforgood.com/podcast/399-jason-flom-with-sean-tyler-and-reginald-henderson/ https://lavaforgood.com/podcast/421-jason-flom-with-james-gibson/ https://lavaforgood.com/podcast/360-wrongful-conviction-false-confessions-midnight-crew-update/  Wrongful Conviction with Ben Bowlin  is a production of Lava for Good™ Podcasts in association with Signal Co.
