#205 Jason Flom with James Davis - UPDATE

This is an updated episode that originally aired on August 12, 2020.
On January 24th, 2004, a party at the Brooklyn Masonic Temple devolved into violence, resulting in one man’s death. Before the violence erupted, an overserved young man left the party into the care of his new girlfriend - only to become the murder suspect on the word of his jilted ex. Despite zero physical evidence and an unreliable eye witness, James Davis was convicted of murder and sentenced to 18 years to life thanks to shoddy defense lawyers.

This gripping series reveals the tragedy of injustice…as well as the triumph that is possible when people step up and demand change.
