How Golf Digest helped an inmate win his freedom after 27 years

from 50 Things That Changed Golf · host Golf Digest

No story in the history of Golf Digest has been anything like the one of Valentino Dixon, an inmate for 27 years in an upstate New York prison who helped bide his time by drawing golf courses. Dixon's initial connection to editorial director Max Adler led to Adler examining the questionable details of his murder case, and raised enough questions to eventually lead to Dixon's release from prison this week. Adler joins Sam Weinman and Keely Levins to tell the remarkable story of how a golf writer helped win a man his freedom, and what comes next. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
