Wednesday Apr 14, 2021
Wednesday Apr 14, 2021
This episode examines some current events of wrongful convictions. This is the story of Herbert Alford, who was convicted of a murder he did not commit due to the negligence of the Hertz car rental company. How could a popular corporation ignore multiple subpoenas to provide evidence of someone's innocence and the trial proceeds irregardless? Join us as we discuss how Hertz jumbled this case that should have never gone to trial. As a bonus, we discuss other current events such as a possible wrongful conviction in Australia which new genetic information may explain the death of a woman's four children.
