Wrongfully Convicted in Canada // USA Losing Trade War

from Real Talk Ryan Jespersen · host Relay

Roy Allan Sobotiak spent 35 years in prison for a murder he's always insisted he did not commit. It's the longest sentence served by a victim of wrongful conviction in Canadian history. How many other innocent people are currently behind bars? Has the judicial system evolved to prevent these types of situations? Is Susan Kaminsky's killer still at large?  1:30 | Innocence Canada's Stéphanie Nowak and Pamela Zbarsky take us into Mr. Sobotiak's case, and explain how their advocacy led to his release in our feature interview presented by Mercedes-Benz Edmonton West.  INNOCENCE CANADA: https://www.innocencecanada.com/ CHECK OUT MERCEDES-BENZ EDMONTON WEST: https://www.mercedes-benz-edmontonwest.ca/ 36:40 | Beneath Donald Trump's bluster, the United States is losing the trade war.
