    S3-40: The Twin Blue Line – Isaac Gaston, Alternative Suspect

    Isaac “Ike” Gaston was a dead ringer for Gutierrez’s composite, and he lived within a mile of the crime. He also had a long criminal history spanning some 40 years which included violence - such as assault, burglary, robbery, and sexual misconduct with a minor. Even while Gaston was awaiting sentencing for another charge in county jail, he assaulted four correctional officers in a vile way. 10 years ago, we only had Isaac's picture, and no other information. But thanks to a few social media leads, we learned his name and later discovered his identity, and subsequent police reports related to tips for Gaston. As for how he was cleared of the murder, that's anyone's guess. Tune in to Season 3 of Snow Files when we explore alternative suspects that were never revealed at the trial.

    S3-EP42: Big Jeff-Little Jeff: Jeff Durbin and Jeff Miller - Alternative Suspects

    In August of 1991, just five months after the murder of young gas station attendant Bill Little, a string of other gas station robberies plagued Bloomington. Jeff Miller and Jeff Durbin colluded to rob gas stations together with a gun, for petty sums of cash. Durbin was the getaway driver, and planned to use doctored cab driver’s log sheets to evade detection. Miller chose an Adam’s Family Halloween mask. Regardless, Miller was identified by people who knew him when he behaved erratically after the last robbery, and the two eventually confessed, being sentenced to 38 years behind bars between the two. These known, convicted, and self-admitted robbers were never seriously investigated for the strikingly similar robbery and murder of Bill Little. Listen to hear how they avoided prosecution for Jamie’s case, and the ominous remarks made by one of them, after coming face to face with Jamie, post conviction.

    S3-EP43: Sorry, Derek - Maurice Johnson - Alternative Suspects

    In 1992, just 11 months after the murder of young Clark Gas Station attendant Bill Little, Kroger Station attendant Derek Brooks was shot in the chest during an armed robbery gone wrong, just 2.6 miles away. Like with Bill, the robber attempted to kill him with two shots to the chest, but the gun jammed. A petty sum of cash was stolen and the assailant fled in a maroon colored coupe, with a female get away driver. After being apprehended that same night, and identified with matching footprints and fingerprints, Maurice Johnson admitted to the crime, was charged with attempted murder and armed robbery, apologized to the victim, and was sentenced to twenty five years in prison. The same officers, detectives, and crime scene technicians worked both cases, and were key trial witnesses against Jamie Snow. They received a tip that Maurice Johnson admitted to the Clark Station robbery and murder. However, we cannot find any documents to suggest Maurice Johnson was ever investigated for Bill Little’s murder.

    S3-Bonus - Jamie's Songs

    Jamie was blown away by his Christmas present this year. Six musicians from 6 completely different genres were commissioned to write, compose, and record a song about Jamie. The only information they received was information about Jamie and his case, and they were asked to write a song about whatever aspect or view point resonated with them - whether it was from Jamie's point of view, a supporter's point of view, his family - anything goes. And man, did they really step up to the plate! I can't begin to tell you how wonderful these artists were to work with on this project. They were so in tune, pardon the pun, with Jamie's plight, and our efforts to overturn his wrongful conviction. They were filled with hope for his release, and that has everything to do with you. I have no doubt they garnered material from his support network because the lyrics speak for themselves. Thank you for that. We hope you enjoy them as much as we do! You can see pictures of the artists who are not anonymous and read the lyrics on the episode page on SnowFiles.net. All of them are simply amazing. So - for best listening, slap on your headphones - and don't forget to let us know what you think! Lyrics and links to the individual MP3's in the show notes. Lyrics: Snowman (acoustic, soulful) by Anonymous [verse 1] Locked up It get colder every year And for what How the hell did we end up here? No evidence.. no lessons learnt No trial to clear a name Are we just playing a game In a world full of shame And as the snow began to fall I could hear the angels calling [chorus] you see truth will always win You’ll be home once again Oh the winter snow Will always show there’s hope And it's like gold. And time will tell So hold on, your pain is felt There won’t be no rest We’ll do our best To get you home, where you belong Once again. [verse 2] 22 long years Far too many tears It’s hard to imagine the pain You feel each day And stay, and wait and Up, up all night It soon will be, be your time to To relinquish this pain And hold your name As a symbol of hope and As the snow begins to fall I can hear the angels calling [chorus] [bridge] Locked up, for nothing Justice is coming I said locked up, right here, for nothing Justice, it's here, it's coming [chorus] http://docs.snowfiles.net/jamie-songs/Snowman-Final-Acoustic.mp3 ========= Lyrics: Justice Shine (pop/country/ukulele) by Kel I see a snowman outside that’s what they call me inside of this awful place I did no mistake it’s so hard to breathe without family although they’re with me with their hearts baby [chorus] Yes I know that I’ll hear something good it will happen this time Now is the time And I know that I have you now is the time now is the time bright oh justice shine! And deep down I know I am not alone though it’s 22 that i’ve been without you I’ll freeze my hands someday cause i’ll finally feel the snowman’s frost with my fingertips [chorus] I need your strength yes i feel that you are with me what is next? i want to be free Yes I know that I’ll hear something
