About this episode

The episode explores the complexities of a legal case with no single piece of evidence for the defense, as lawyers uncover new insights from a witness just before an execution.

The way the state constructed the case, there’s no one big shiny piece of evidence for the defense to knock down. Instead, there are a million little threads to pull at. With less than two months until the execution, the lawyers comb through the evidence one last time, and a new witness offers unexpected revelations.
