Episode 1: Guilty until proven innocent Record of Wrong
-
- Crímenes reales
Javon Davis spent nearly six years in prison for attempted murder before a judge overturned his conviction. He wishes there had been a public apology, so people would know he’s not the person he was portrayed to be. But Hennepin County prosecutors still believe he’s guilty - so an apology is not in the cards. In fact, they’re fighting to keep him from getting compensation for his time behind bars.
Record of Wrong is a KARE 11 podcast that delves deep into the world of the criminal justice system, from the perspective of the people appealing their convictions. This six-part series hosted by KARE 11's Emily Haavik examines the towering obstacles to prove innocence after conviction, and the burden those people carry long after they have been freed.
