Cain Joshua Storey and Darrell Lee Clark of Georgia were exonerated in the 1996 murder of 15-year-old Brian Bowling with the assistance of lawyers, and 'Proof.'
“What podcasting can do is bring in a fresh set, or independent set, of eyes … that can go uncover important new evidence and put that evidence in context and make that info available to people who can make a difference because of it,” Simpson said.
Storey was initially charged with manslaughter but those charges were upgraded to murder and brought in Clark. That happened, according to the court filing, because of testimony from two witnesses: one who claimed to have seen Clark running through the Bowling’s front yard that night and another who said she had overheard Storey bragging at her party how he and Clark had killed Bowling.The man who testified that he saw Clark running has difficulty hearing and speaking, said Simpson.
Cribbs said it can sometimes be unclear whether an action by a law enforcement official or prosecutor was improper and led to a wrongful conviction. In this case? “It is not a gray area at all,” she said.
