Charles Mamou 999333 Polunsky Unit 12-CD-53 3872 South FM 350 Livingston, TX 77351 In this gripping episode of Behind the Bars, we sit down with Charles Mamou Jr., a man who has spent over 25 years on death row in Texas for a murder he says he didn’t commit — and the facts back him up. Charles was a drug dealer who found himself caught in a violent setup: an attempted robbery at gunpoint, a woman caught in the crossfire, and a justice system that refused to seek the truth. According to Charles, he was ambushed by three individuals trying to steal $20,000 from him. Gunfire erupted in the dark, chaos ensued, and in the confusion, Charles escaped — only to be later accused of a murder he didn’t commit. The real twist? The state’s key witness was one of the men who tried to rob Charles that night — the first case of its kind in American legal history. With no forensic evidence, no DNA, and no physical link to the murder victim, Charles was still railroaded to death row in less than 90 days. His only “crime”? Refusing to testify and be labeled a snitch. This is the raw, unfiltered story of injustice, survival, and a man fighting for the truth from behind the bars.

The Man Who Survived as Many Bullets as Tupac – The Unbelievable Story of Eddie Powell

🔒 BEHIND THE BARS: The Eddie Powell Story | Shot 5 Times, Blamed for a Crime He Didn’t Commit From the side of a dirt road to a high-intensity manhunt, this is the shocking true story of Eddie Powell — a man who survived two police shootings, took five bullets, and lived to tell the story the media refused to share. After fleeing from an unidentified undercover officer, Eddie was hunted by helicopters, K-9 units, and an army of city police. A dog was released on him, latched onto his leg — and in the chaos, a police officer unloaded an entire clip in the dark, accidentally shooting his own K-9. Instead of admitting their mistake, they blamed Eddie. Even though he never had a gun. Eddie went on the run for a day and a half through the forest, before collapsing in exhaustion — only to be discovered and shot five more times by police. He survived. And during the trial, it was revealed: the bullet that killed the dog came from the officer’s own weapon. Yet the damage was done. Now serving 15 years in a Florida state penitentiary, Eddie Powell shares his story in this exclusive Behind the Bars interview. 🎤 Hear the truth. ⚖️ Uncover the injustice. 💥 The man who took as many shots as Tupac — and lived. 📌 Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more untold stories from behind the bars. #BehindTheBars #EddiePowell #TrueStory #PoliceBrutality #WrongfullyAccused #PrisonStories #Survivor #JusticeForEddie
