Wrongful Conviction

#284 Jason Flom and Greg Glod with John Jones - RE-RELEASE

At about 9:40 AM on March 19th, 2010, John Jones awoke to find his daughter Jada unresponsive and called 9-1-1. She was rushed to the hospital where she remained until July 16th, 2010 when she was removed from life support and passed away. Based on the junk science of shaken baby syndrome, John was convicted of murdering his daughter and sentenced to 15 years to life. Greg Glod, Criminal Justice Fellow at Americans for Prosperity, returns to our podcast to co-host with Jason Flom and share this tragic example of our legal system gone awry.  For more on the junk science of Shaken Baby Syndrome, check out Wrongful Conviction: Junk Science - Shaken Baby Syndrome with host Josh Dubin, released on November 18th, 2020. https://www.wrongfulconvictionpodcast.com/podcast/s12e14-wrongful-conviction-junk-science-shaken-baby-syndrome  Learn more and get involved at:   <a href="https://www.ohioinnocenceproject.org">https://www.ohioinnocenceproject.org</a>  <a href="https://cifsjustice.org/">https://cifsjustice.org/</a>  <a href="https://lavaforgood.com/with-jason-flom/">https://lavaforgood.com/with-jason-flom/</a>  Wrongful Conviction is a production of Lava for Good™ Podcasts in association with Signal Co.

Hosted by celebrated criminal justice reform advocate and founding board member of the Innocence Project Jason Flom, Pulitzer prize-winning podcast host and producer Maggie Freleng, and Emmy Award-winning writer, producer, and podcast host Lauren Bright Pacheco, Wrongful Conviction features intimate conversations with men and women who have spent years in prison for crimes they maintain they did not commit. Some have been fully exonerated and reunited with family and friends while others continue to languish, with some even facing execution on death row. Each episode peels back the layers behind the stories of those who have found themselves caught in a legal system gone wrong, with illuminating insights from lawyers and leading experts sharing their in-depth knowledge about each case, from prison visits and courtroom battles to reexamined crime scenes and witness interviews. This gripping series reveals the tragedy of injustice…as well as the triumph that is possible when people step up and demand change.
