Season 1, Episode 3: A Gun, a Lie, and a Timeline

from Locked Up: The Wrongful Conviction Files · host warstone72

In this episode, we follow the physical evidence—or the lack of it—that should have been central to the case. We dig into the story of the alleged murder weapon, a gun that was reportedly stolen six days after the shooting. We examine the police’s failed attempt to connect it to the crime through a bullet fragment given to them by a victim’s mother. The entire narrative of the crime, built on contradictory witness statements and a flawed timeline, starts to unravel. We show how a case can be built on a foundation of contradictions and a lack of forensic evidence, and how a man can be convicted when the most important piece of the puzzle is missing.
