Description

In this episode, Bob interviews exoneree Chris Scott. Chris was convicted of capital murder and sexual assault and began a life sentence in the Coffield Unit prison in 1997. He became friends with Ed Ates, when Ed arrived at the same unit in 1998. The two spent 10 years together in prison, before Scott was finally exonerated through a Conviction Integrity Unity in Dallas County. Chris tells us about his experience with the criminal justice system, his time spent living with Ed, his exoneration, and fills us in on what he's doing now to help other people who have been wrongfully convicted.
