Jim Prange, 70, a US financier turned podcaster of "Law, Justice and Lies" after 18-months' imprisonment for a white-collar crime he never committed Launching Life at 60

    • Careers

A phone call from an FBI agent in October 2011 started Jim Prange's harrowing experience of a wrongful arrest, conviction and imprisonment for a financial fraud (supposedly of $4,750) that he never committed. At the time he was a successful private equity financial expert raising millions of dollars for startup firms in Wisconsin. The saga didn't end until December 2017, when he at last became a completely freeman. It took from him six years of his life and $250,000 in legal fees. During 18-months imprisonment, he interviewed over 200 wrongfully convicted inmates. He's' just completed his first book "Set Up" chroniclling his experience and started a podcast Law, Litigation and Lies to help those who've gone through similar experiences.
