One Minute Remaining - Stories from the inmates: Recent Episodes
Jack Laurence
In 'One Minute Remaining' I speak with inmates serving lengthy prison sentences for a range of different crimes. From arson to robbery, attempted murder and even murder itself and everything in between.
Some of the inmates I speak with say they are innocent of the crimes in which they have been convicted, others just say they feel they have received extreme sentences that don't match what they are convicted of.
Whatever the case might be I am not here to try and prove them innocent or guilty, what I am here to do is allow them the chance to tell their stories. We will look at the case's against them and allow them to tell us their accounts of the events that lead up to their incarceration.
As part of this podcast I want you to get involved. If you think I have missed something, not explored a certain possibility or just gone too soft on something, then tell me. Maybe you just have a general question you would like to ask one of the men or women I speak with, then send them to me and I will ask them on your behalf. I am in regular contact with all the men and women I speak with so this is your opportunity to join the conversations.

As always after each of the cases we look at it's time to catch up with the man they call 'The Voice of Reason' a man with decades of trial experience as a defense attorney in Chicago Illinois, Australia's favourite attorney at law, Michael Leonard, as we discuss the case of Christopher Dunn.
In 1991, Dunn was convicted of murder in St. Louis, Missouri, based largely on the testimonies of two teenagers who later recanted their statements. There was no physical evidence linking Dunn to the crime, and he consistently maintained his innocence. Despite these facts, he was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Over the years, multiple witnesses and even the original teenage accusers admitted that their testimonies were fabricated under police pressure.
Despite compelling evidence of his innocence and a judge even stating in 2020 that no jury would find him guilty today, legal hurdles have prevented his release, highlighting the systemic challenges faced by those wrongfully convicted.

Today I speak with a man who the state of Missouri has decided, has 3 months to live.
Marcellus Williams was handed a death sentence in 2001 for the murder of Felicia Gale, its a crime he not only says he didn't commit but one that a number of independent experts say DNA evidence has proved he's innocent of...
The threat of death is nothing new for the man who has spent over two decades in prison trying to fight his conviction, just a few weeks ago the Missouri Supreme court scheduled Marcellus to be executed on September 24th at 6pm.
it's in fact the third time he's been given a date and only narrowly escaped death by a couple of hours the last time.
I first came across his story when I saw a post that had been made by the innocence project who, a long with a number of other attorneys, has been fighting Marcellus's case for sometime.
After seeing his story I wanted to reach out to see if he and I could speak.
I wasn't keen on my chances as I have attempted to speak with others on death row before but with no joy. There sentence is usually carried out different to general population, they are confined to their cells in a form of solitary confinement with strict access to communication.
None the less I tracked down Marcellus and sent him a message, he replied telling me that he in fact had 24/7 access to a phone within his cell.
Seemingly a privileged offered to those who have been given their date.

Almost one year ago I was scrolling through Instagram when I stumbled across a page dedicated to one of the many innocence style organisations that is dotted across the united states, setup in response to thee overwhelming number of people who are incarcerated for crimes they didn't commit.
On the page there was a photograph of a young African American boy pictured with a big smile wearing a baseball outfit the name of that boy was Damian Skinner.... the story spoke of how Damian had been arrested tried and convicted for a murder in 1996, Damian had been convicted with next to no evidence, apart from a so called eye witness, who didn't even see the crime take place. He would tell police that he saw Damian in a car head in the direction of the crime and then moments later heard gun shots.
Damian's older brother was a known gang member and he said that police believed he'd in fact committed the crime but with no evidence to arrest him they brought Damian in and told him he would need to testify against his brother or face prison himself. He refused and sealed his fate..
Damian would spend the next almost 28 years fighting to clear his name without success. Eventually coming up for parole but was denied multiple times, the biggest hurdle was the fact that he was never willing to admit to the crime and thus in the eyes of the board he was not taking ownership or showing any remorse.
however on his most recent appearance he would have legal representation and a strong argument was put forward and finally he was granted his parole...
Almost 6 months later it's time to check in with Damian to see how he's doing as a free man.

Today it's time to talk the case of Brad Hays with Australia's favourite attorney of law, Michael Leonard.
When you hear that someone has been handed a sentence of life plus 104 years you'd be forgiven for thinking that today I am sitting down with some sort of serial killer, or someone who has committed some incredibly heinous crimes but you'd be wrong.
Brad Hays is currently serving his incredible sentence in the state of Missouri. Brad is no career criminal, in fact up until this sentence he had never been to prison. Brad Hays did not kill anyone, he wasn't even present when someone was killed, in fact no one died at all in Brad's case.
So how and why has Brad been essentially handed a death sentence?
This is the story of Bradley Hays as told by him from his prison cell.

Well it's that time again! Today I sit down with the man they call the voice of reason Mr. Michael Leonard from Leonard trial lawyers in Chicago Illinois to discuss the latest case, which today is the case of Raymundo Chagolla.
On January 10, 2000, Raymundo Chagolla, who was 18 years old at the time, was at home recovering from the flu and watching The Simpsons. Around 8:40 p.m. at the Stardust Motel in Riverside, California, a tragic incident occurred. Billy Medlin, a resident of the hotel, was helping someone at the motel’s soda machine when a man approached them. The man yelled at Medlin, referred to him as “white boy homie,” and shot and killed him. The shooter then fled towards the back alley, firing his gun at the building before disappearing from view.
Despite the prosecution being unable to establish a clear motive for the shooting, Raymundo was charged and convicted based on contaminated eyewitness identifications and unrecorded hearsay statements. Raymundo consistently maintained that he was at home during the shooting and cooperated with the police throughout the investigation.
During the trial, it was not disclosed to the defense that there were others who had a clear motive to want Medlin dead.

I don't think a week goes by when someone doesn't mention to me the name Evaristo Salas Jnr.
Evaristo's story has touched so many people, it's had us in tears of sadness and of joy and today is most certainly the latter as I sit down with Jnr after almost 8 months of freedom to hear how he's going and what's next for the man who lost 27 years of his life because of a lie.

Today I catch up with David Bomber as he looks to ask the Governor for clemency in his case....
On June 5th, 2010, the David Bomber would meat Larry Michael Worrell II for the very first time at the pool at the apartment complex where they both Lived. A short time later, Worrell and David left the pool area and began drinking. Later, Worrell and David would pick up David's girlfriend at the time, who also met Worrell for the first time that day.
David says that Michael, a former Marine would talk of his PTSD and becoming increasingly distraught, eventually snapping in a rage and placing David in a "military-style" chokehold to the point that he nearly lost consciousness, which occurred inside his own apartment.
It was at this point that his girlfriend intervened, enabling David to escape from Worrell's grasp where he then fled to his kitchen. After being pursued by Worrell, David armed himself with a STEAK KNIFE and stabbed him in the chest ONE TIME.
David says he would attempt first aid but it wasn't working. He would make the decision to flea the scene and was later arrested.
Sadly, on January 15th, 2011, Michael Worrell passed away from complications from the wound and David's charges would be upgraded to include second degree murder.
David lost his case of self defense and was sentenced to 41 years 60 Days.

Today we talk about the case of Gerald L Johnson. Charged with felony murder after being involved in a police chase which would end in disaster as an innocent women is killed when Gerald collided with her vehicle.
Gerald was accused of carrying a firearm at the time of the crash and this fact alone would see him charged with Felony Murder. Gerald says he didn't have a gun that day and that the prosecutor fabricated one in order to charge him with a more serious crime.
So what does Mr. Leonard think?

He was addicted to drugs, he was stealing from gas stations after hours to pay for that addiction and was in a cycle of going in and out of prisons. David Talley deserved to be sent to prison for what he had done, however so far I have not come across one person who believes that he received an appropriate sentence for his crimes.

Today I catch up with the man they call, the voice of reason. Michael Leonard is a defense attorney with decades of trial experience and a wealth of knowledge in the US legal system and as always he gives us his professional opinion on our latest case, which today is the story of Dandre Lane.
On the 2nd December of 2011 Dandre Lane says that while driving to his former partners home with their two year old daughter he was carjacked.
A man with a gun not only took his car but also his daughter. After police are alerted to the crime they start the hunt for baby Bianca. Dandre's car would be found shortly after the alarm had been raised, still running with doors open but no Bianca.
Dandre and his former partner both say that police from the very beginning never believed Dandre's story and because of his criminal history they instantly turned their attention to him and believed he had killed his daughter.
Dandre would eventually ne charged with the murder of his daughter but with baby Bianca still missing what would the state bring as evidence? A cadaver dog all the way from the UK.

Gerald Johnson is not an innocent man, he's a man who had a tough life, a life that would ultimately lead him to join one of the most notorious criminal gangs in America, The Bloods.
Gerald has been called a 'Gun toting thug' and it would be the presence of a weapon during a motor vehicle accident that would see him hit with a felony murder charge. A charge that would get him a life sentence.
Gerald says there's one major issue with his case, he had no weapon. He claims the prosecution fabricated a weapon in order to be able to charge him with felony murder.
This is his story as told by him.

The Jury system is one that is used all across the globe. A selection of every day men and women like you and I tasked with the job of coming to a decision of innocence or guilt. Lay people who most of the time have little or no knowledge of the law.
As a group they are thrown together, each with their own biases, feelings and personalities, they must work together to find a verdict.
We all see them sitting at their seats in the courtroom, watch as they take notes and listen to the evidence but what we don't see is what goes one behind closed doors, what discussions are being had, how certain personalities control the room, until now!
The Jury Murder Trial is a fantastic show from the UK that has come up with a unique social experiment to not only try and uncover and understand the dynamics inside a jury room but also to see if two separate jury's hearing the same evidence will come to the same conclusion.
One of the shows creators Ed Kelly sat down with me to talk about how this all came about and what reaction they've had since the show has aired.

Today is a first for OMR as I sit down with Mark Newell.. Mark is the brother of John Newell the former husband of Karen Newell who is currently incarcerated for her husbands murder..
Since I began this podcast back in September of 2022 I had always stated that this is about giving incarcerated men and women the opportunity to share their stories, their side of what happened during the events which lead to their incarceration.
I have been asked many times in the past what about the victims? and my answer has always been the same, I am not out actively searching for them or contacting the, this is for a multitude of reasons, the biggest one being that, having been through a traumatic event of potentially loosing a loved one or being involved in some form of crime is an undoubtably painful and life changing experience that in most cases will live with them forever. Having some random podcaster from Australia calling you to, not only remind you of it but also ask if you'd like to relive that experience is not something I want to do. If people involved in the cases we discuss hear about or see the show they can choose to ignore it.
However I've always been of the mindset that should someone involved in a case we discuss reach out to me I would very much welcome that and that is exactly what happened a few weeks ago.

Former career detective Gary Jubin spent decades of his life investigating serious crimes and putting bad people behind bars until he himself became the subject of scrutiny during his investigation into the disappearance of young William Tiral. A young three year old boy who went missing under suspicious circumstance's in 2011.
Gary would be charged of breaching the surveillance devices act 2007. accused of secretly recording a suspect in the case. Gary has said he had many concerns around speaking with this potential suspect in relation to Williams disappearance, the listening devises they would usually use would constantly fail, he would be speaking this person alone so wouldn't have another person to back up his side of the conversation and the person he would be speaking with had been described as delusional so recorded the conversation for his own protection so Gary would record the conversation from his own device at the knowledge of other officers.
Gary plead not guilty to the charges and was subjected to a two week hearing in which he was convicted and handed a fine of ten thousand dollars. After 34 years of his life in a career he loved and dedicated his life to he was now out, what would he do next?
Gary went on to create the incredibly successful podcast called 'I catch Killers'.
long before I released my own true crime podcast I was and still am an avid listener of the genre. One show I have listened to since it launched in 2020 is 'I catch Killers'. Gary took his decades of experience from the police interview room and begin to interview his own, former police officers who had incredible careers and stories to share, eventually branching out to speak with former criminals who have since turned their lives around.
In February of this year I reached out to Gary to see if he would be interested in a sit down chat to discuss the world of crime and punishment and I am so pleased that he said yes and welcomed me into the I Catch Killers studios in Sydney.

Bill has never told his story past this point, until now. He talks us through the moment he was arrested and the years of corruption, drugs and violence inside different facilities in Panama before he would turn his life around after a visit from his mother who brought him a book that would set him off on a different path.
Once one of America's most wanted men, Wild Bill, as he's been called by authorities, was arrested as he attempted to make his way into Nicaragua via Costa Rica on July 26, 2010.
Bill was accused of the murders of 5 people, murders that he would later confess to. Bill says he worked in Panama as a gun for hire, a hitman, for a cartel of sorts. He says he was driven by greed and a severe lack of any morals.
Bill says he's not the man he once was, he does not speak of the murders that he has committed or even so much as mention their names, he says he is haunted by his crimes and he focuses on doing good in the world in which he now finds himself.
Once arrested and convicted he was sentenced to over 40 years inside a Panamanian prison where he remains today. While incarcerated Bill has become the prisons Chaplin and holds regular services for the other incarcerated men. He's also written a book about his experiences inside one of the worlds worst and most violent prisons, the link to which is below. Not only has he written a book but he also does a daily audio diary which he posts on youtube and has a Facebook page 'Friends of Brother Bill' that he uses to stay in touch with people on the outside.

On the 2nd December of 2011 Dandre Lane says that while driving to his former partners home with their two year old daughter he was carjacked.
A man with a gun not only took his car but also his daughter. After police are alerted to the crime they start the hunt for baby Bianca. Dandre's car would be found shortly after the alarm had been raised, still running with doors open but no Bianca.
Dandre and his former partner both say that police from the very beginning never believed Dandre's story and because of his criminal history they instantly turned their attention to him and believed he had killed his daughter.
Dandre would eventually ne charged with the murder of his daughter but with baby Bianca still missing what would the state bring as evidence? A cadaver dog all the way from the UK.

Recently we have been covering the story of Jeremy and Zachary Cain. Two men who were incarcerated as boys, growing up in the Alabama prison system have meant they have missed out on a lot of life's usual events. University, friendship's, careers, family and of course love.
For those astute listeners you would have heard in a number of episodes I talk to and refer to Jeremy's wife. Jeremy has been able to find love in an otherwise bleak situation and this is the story of how Jeremy and Amanda met, fell in love, got married and how they cope with the fact that Jeremy may spend many more years in prison before they can actually be together.

In November of 1986 a man named Scott Macklam was fatally shot in the car park of a community college in Port Huron Michigan.
Fred Freeman who now goes by Temujin Kensu who was over 400 miles away in Escanaba was subsequently arrested, tried and found guilty of the crime and remains in prison almost 37 years later.
No one saw the shooting that Temujin is convicted of committing. Instead, two men testified to seeing a stranger who possibly resembled Temujin at some point before or after the shooting. One of the witnesses was hypnotized before he testified.
No less than nine unimpeached neutral alibi witnesses testified to at trial, that Temujin was over 400 miles away at the time of this crime. The prosecution countered by suggesting that Temujin theoretically could have chartered a plane to go commit the murder and return in time to be seen by his alibi witnesses.
The biggest issue with that is the prosecution never offered any actual evidence to support this theory.
This is the insane story of Fred Freeman as told by him.

On April 7, 2001 the lives of many would change forever. One man would lose his life, three young boys would be charged with murder and many families would be irreversible changed.
The community of Pleasant Grove in Alabama believed they knew what happened that day and believed these boys got what was deserved, until now.
This is story of Jeremey Cain, Zachary Cain and Mark Harper. Three teenage boys that say the events of that day were self defense against a man with a piece of timber and plenty of vile threats. Others would claim it was a savage beating carried out with baseball bats on an unarmed man.
Jimmy Hill in his 40's would confront the boys after Mark Harper had been having issues with his step son. what followed was an altercation that quickly got out of control.
All three boys would be sentenced to 35 years for murder with Mark Harper being released after serving just three.
This is the story of that day as told by the boys who were there.

Eye witness testimony is still considered by many as very strong and compelling evidence when it come's to a crime.
If you have a very confident witness on the stand during a trial who can point out the defendant as the one who committed a crime then this can be seen as great evidence to a jury during a trial.
However eye witness testimony is still the leading cause for wrongful convictions with around 70% of convictions that have been overturned after DNA evidence proved that the eye witness testimony could not have been accurate.
With so many cases we deal with involving eye witness testimony I thought It was about time we spoke with an expert in this field. Dr. Smalarz is an expert in the field of miss identification and witness testimony and today talks me through just some of what can go wrong with our memories when it comes to picking a criminial.

Damian Skinner was wrongfully convicted of murder when he was just 18 years old in 1997. Now after almost 27 years he will be walking the streets a free man. His parole was recently granted by the board and given the sign off by the Governor. Its been decades since Damian has been a free man and a lot has changed in those years.
Damian will be coming out free but still on parole. He hasn't been exonerated of the crime he was convicted of.. yet! so he will be under strict supervision for the first two years of his freedom. One wrong move could see him sent straight back to prison! it's not going to be easy but he's ready.
Damian Skinner grew up in California's infamous streets of Compton. A place where gang violence is everywhere. The Bloods and the Crips are bitter rivals and often settle disputes with blood shed.
Damian had nothing to do with the gangs growing up, his only focus as a young teenager was sport. He had dreams of making it big in the world of baseball, he worked hard at school on his grades and his game.
His father was a minister in a local church and did his best to shield his children from the gangs and the violence outside. Unfortunately Damian's older brother would take a different path to Damian and found his way into the Crips and would not only join the notorious gang but also make a name for himself as someone who was willing to do what needed to be done.
In 1996 Damian's life would change as a SWAT team arrives at his home to arrest him for murder, a murder he believes could have been carried out by his own brother.

One of the most asked about people that we featured on OMR is David Talley. David has been incarcerated for over 20 years so far. Twenty years of a 100 year sentence.
David has sent through multiple appeals to have his sentence re looked at but time and again he has been ignored and denied. David is again looking to put through another motion in the hopes that the courts will take a look at his insane sentence.

Recently I have been watching the series Dr Death on the streaming service Stan here in Australia. It's a true crime series that is extremally unnerving as both season 1 and 2 tell stories of Dr's who would weave a web of lies, manipulation and utter devastation. Countless patients would have their lives forever changed at the hands of these men, men who they were supposed to be able to trust, with some patients even dying from what was done to them.
I wanted to find out more about this world and these Dr's and nurses who go from taking an oath to help people to ultimately destroing lives. So today I sit down with former Special Agent Bruce Sackman for a fascinating and quiet terrifying two part discussion on medical serial killers.
When veterans hospital patients who are recovering well all of a sudden start to die in increasing numbers, it’s up to VA Special Agent in Charge Bruce Sackman to find out why. His shocking discovery rips open the hidden world of what goes on behind the bedside curtains when a killer doctor or nurse decides a patient must die, as detailed in his book Behind the Murder Curtain.
The true story of Bruce Sackman, Special Agent in Charge of the Department of Veterans Affairs Office of Inspector General. Sackman’s main responsibilities had been investigating white-collar crimes such as embezzlement when he is drawn into the macabre world of doctors and nurses who murder their patients. Sackman evolves from an investigator of routine cases to the world’s leading expert on Medical Serial Killers—MSKs—doctors and nurses who ply their evil trade hidden behind the privacy curtain at a patient’s bedside.
Behind the Murder Curtain tells how this dedicated investigator brought down four MSKs in Veterans Hospitals while developing the RED FLAGS PROTOCOL, which is now taught to investigators and forensic nurses throughout the world as a tool for stopping an MSK.

October 2nd 2023 marked the 10th annual wrongful conviction day, a day designed to bring attention to a major issue within the American justice system, wrongful convictions.
Since 1989 more than 3,400 people have been exonerated in the United States, with more than 30,000 years lost between them. In 2022 alone 248 people would be freed from US prisons after being wrongfully incarcerated.
Temujin Kensu and his supporters were hoping that this year the governor of Michigan may finally address his incarceration and look to free him but sadly this was not the case.

Recently we covered the case of South Australian man Henry Keogh. A man convicted for the murder of his former fiancé Anna Jane Cheney. It's a crime he always maintained he was innocent of.
After nearly two decades behind bars Henry's conviction would be overturned and he would be released from prison. While Henry was incarcerated he had a close group of loyal and dedicated fiends and professionals helping him fight the Australian legal system from the outside, one of those was a lady named Faye Hambour.
Faye started out like many people in the Australian public, assured that a guilty man had gone to prison, however after a chance invite to a lecture, that was being given by Dr Bob Moles on the discussion of wrongful conviction's, Faye Hambour's life would suddenly take a different path and force her to begin questioning her belief's in the guilt of a man she once believed to be a murderer.

Dorice Moore was our very first story on OMR, the story that started this entire journey. Dorice was convicted for the murder of lottery winner Abraham Lee Shakespeare. A crime she has always maintained she is innocent of.
Dorice has been fighting to get back into court with newly discovered evidence that was never presented at her original trial. This evidence includes audio recordings that Dorice says proves others were involved in this crime. As well as DNA evidence from blood found at the crime scene.
Dorice finally made it back into court a few weeks ago and we caught up to discuss what's next.

In a strange turn of events Jason was granted his parole. However this would not happen for another five years. Not one to give up could Jason have another chance at early release?
Jason Vukovich, also known as the "Alaskan Avenger," was a victim of physical and sexual abuse. He endured a childhood of beatings and rape at the hands of the man who was supposed to be his protector, his stepfather, Larry Lee Fulton. Fulton married Jason's mother and adopted him at the tender age of four.
The childhood abuse led Jason down a dark path to becoming the hammer-wielding "Alaskan Avenger" on the hunt for pedophiles. He is now serving 23 years at the Spring Creek Correctional Center for assaulting three pedophiles.

On April 7, 2001 the lives of many would change forever. One man would lose his life, three young boys would be charged with murder and many families would be irreversible changed.
This is story of Jeremey Cain, Zachary Cain and Mark Harper. Three teenage boys that say the events of that day were self defense against a man with a piece of timber and plenty of vile threats. Others would claim it was a savage beating carried out with baseball bats on an unarmed man.
Jimmy Hill in his 40's would confront the boys after Mark Harper had been having issues with his step son. what followed was an altercation that quickly got out of control.
All three boys would be sentenced to 35 years for murder with Mark Harper being released after serving just three.
This is the story of that day as told by the boys who were there.

We recently told the story of Zach Peterson, a man found guilty of 2nd degree murder even though the jury not only believed him not to be the shooter but also that he wasn't even near the crime when it occurred. He was found guilty using the 'Felony Murder Rule'. Today I sit down with OMR's voice of reason and defense attorney Michael Leonard to discuss the case and the Felony Murder Rule.
On Tuesday January 18th 2011 just after 2pm police get a call about gun shots and a man lying in a pool of blood at the Sunset Trailer Park off Lenoir Street in South Columbia.
The following day at 1:30pm police would say that Zach Peterson was their main suspect in the death of 31 year old James Leon Porter, killed during a suspected drug deal gone bad. Zach has never denied setting up the deal and driving James Porter to the location, however he says that was the extent of what he knows from that day as he would leave Mr. Porter at the trailer park and drive across town and would later find out things went bad and James had been shot.
At trial Zach's defence would bring strong evidence to help prove he was not in fact the shooter in this crime.
The jury would later decide that they did not in fact believe Zach to be the shooter however he would still be found guilty of 2nd Degree Murder, why? the Felony Murder rule.

From time to time I like to let you know about a show that I have found that I think you might like. Well recently I came across 'The Prosecutors' with Brett and Alice. Two real life prosecutors who take a look at cases from their view point.
I really enjoyed taking a look at the courtroom from the prospective of the prosecution and I got in touch with them and invited them on to talk about my particular gripes with the justice system, including jury trials, the felony murder rule and many other interesting topics.
It was a fun chat and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

After recently wrapping up the story of Damian Skinner its time as always to check in with the man they call the voice of reason, OMR's resident defence attorney Michael Leonard.
Damian Skinner grew up in California's infamous streets of Compton. A place where gang violence is everywhere. The Bloods and the Crips are bitter rivals and often settle disputes with blood shed.
Damian had nothing to do with the gangs growing up, his only focus as a young teenager was sport. He had dreams of making it big in the world of baseball, he worked hard at school on his grades and his game.
His father was a minister in a local church and did his best to shield his children from the gangs and the violence outside. Unfortunately Damian's older brother would take a different path to Damian and found his way into the Crips and would not only join the notorious gang but also make a name for himself as someone who was willing to do what needed to be done.
In 1996 Damian's life would change as a SWAT team arrives at his home to arrest him for murder, a murder he believes could have been carried out by his own brother.

After 27 years incarcerated for a murder he always maintained he was innocent of, finally the courts agree! Evaristo Salas Jnr is a free man!
Evaristo Salas was accused of firing two shots into Jose Arreola’s head in Sunnyside in November 1995.
He was tried as an adult and convicted by a jury of first-degree murder three days after his 16th birthday and was sentenced to nearly 33 years in prison. The gun used in the murder was never recovered and there was no physical evidence linking Jnr to the killing.
His conviction was based on the testimony of a police informant, Bill Bruhn, and Arreola’s girlfriend, Ofelia Cortez (formerly Gonzalez), who was there when her partner was shot.
Many TV shows have uncovered horrific truths about the so called 'evidence' in this case, yet Jnr still remains incarcerated.
This is his story, as told by him.

Russell Manser served 23-years behind bars in Northern Territory, Queensland and NSW prisons and made a name as one of Australia's most notorious criminals before leaving a life of crime behind and starting a charity that would offer support to victims of physical, emotional and sexual abuse at the hands of institutions, as they seek justice.
Russell grew up in Western Sydney, for him, bank robbers who came from his area were people he looked up to, men who coming home from prison were so often greeted like hero's. Russell didn't come from a broken home, in fact he came from a very law abiding household where upholding the family name was important.
Unfortunately Russell's life was taking a different direction.

Henry Keogh is an Australian convicted of murder. He grew up in Adelaide, South Australia and was educated at Saint Ignatius College and briefly at the School of Dentistry at The University of Adelaide.
In 1995 he was sentenced to 26 years in prison for the 1994 murder of his 29-year-old fiancée, Anna-Jane Cheney, then head of Professional Conduct at the Law Society of South Australia: it was alleged that Keogh had planned the murder for over two years.
Mr Keogh and his family have always maintained his innocence, and raised their doubts regarding some of the evidence upon which the conviction was based. Mainly that of South Australia's former Chief Forensic Pathologist Dr Manock.
Henry admitted to signing five life insurance policies on behalf of Cheney. Whereas the prosecution alleged the combined value of $1.15 million AUD was motive for the murder, Henry says that these were submitted to prevent insurance agencies he had established from lapsing, and that the amount eligible to claim was closer to $400,000. The prosecution would conceded during the trial that Anna-Jane was aware of at least two of these policies.
After over 20 years Henry would subsequently be released from prison on appeal, the prosecution would look to take him back to court on the charges but it would never eventuate.

In November of 1986 a man named Scott Macklam was fatally shot in the car park of a community college in Port Huron Michigan.
Fred Freeman who now goes by Temujin Kensu who was over 400 miles away in Escanaba was subsequently arrested, tried and found guilty of the crime and remains in prison almost 37 years later
No one saw the shooting that Temujin is convicted of committing. Instead, two men testified to seeing a stranger who possibly resembled Temujin at some point before or after the shooting. One of the witnesses was hypnotized before he testified.
No less than nine unimpeached neutral alibi witnesses testified to at trial, that Temujin was over 400 miles away at the time of this crime. The prosecution countered by suggesting that Temujin theoretically could have chartered a plane to go commit the murder and return in time to be seen by his alibi witnesses.
The biggest issue with that is the prosecution never offered any actual evidence to support this theory.
This is the insane story of Fred Freeman as told by him.

Mr Keogh and his family have always maintained his innocence, and raised their doubts regarding some of the evidence upon which the conviction was based. Mainly that of South Australia's former Chief Forensic Pathologist Dr Manock.

The story of Dr Colin Manock, the former Chief Forensic Pathologist for South Australia is one of long term failure of the SA legal system.
This was a man who was unqualified to give evidence in courtrooms and yet he did so, time and time again, with some 400 criminal cases that many say should be re-opened.
It is the largest volume of potential wrongful convictions in a single jurisdiction – due to one pathologist – in history.
Dr Robert Moles is a man who has been trying to correct the injustices created by the failings of Dr Manock and the SA legal system for decades. I first met Dr Moles when I was introduced to him by Henry Keough. What I was not prepared for was what Dr Moles was about to tell me over the course of a 3 hour discussion.

Today is part 2 of the story of former high ranking gang member Jayme Rodgers. Jayme was a gang guy from a pretty young age. Growing up in a home without much love or stability meant Jayme would look outside the home for acceptance and belonging.
This would sadly mean that he would fall into the gang life, he not only fell into it but threw himself into it. Jayme lived and breathed gang life, he believed in it, it consumed him. He would do anything for his gang and this attitude would finding him given a sentence of 45 years for a drive by shooting.
Once inside prison Jayme of course continue his gang education and would slowly climb the ladder to become second in command. However during an extended period in solitary confinement, due to gang related violence, Jayme’s life would take a sudden turn. He would start educating himself and started to discover he didn't have to be violent or angry anymore and so he would face his toughest challenge, discovering who he really was.

Today I sit down with OMR's resident attorney at law Michael Leonard to discuss the incredible case of Temujin Kensu. Michael certainly has some strong opinions on what he's heard from this case.

Relationships are hard, they take work, communication, mutual respect and love. Now just imagine you were trying to do all of that while your other half was serving a life sentence behind bars. Paula Kensu is the wife of Temujin Kensu, the man from Michigan serving a life sentence for a murder he says he didn't commit.
Paula and Temujin did not meet at a bar, on tinder or through friends, Paula and Temujin met while Temujin was incarcerated. After reading about Temujin's story Paula felt compelled to reach out and see if she could help. They would start chatting via the prisons email system and become close friends and that friendship would blossom into love and marriage.
Often times when someone is incarcerated they leave behind family members, mothers, fathers, kids and partners. These family members are not physically behind bars but mentally they are doing the time with them. A daily struggle of emotions and the stress of not knowing if or when they might have their loved one home. Today I sit down to talk with Paula about all of these struggles an emotions as well as the added stress of trying to get justice for her husband.

Today I sit down with the co director of the Michigan Innocence clinic, Imran Syed who is also the attorney working on the case of Temujin Kensu. In the United States it is estimated that as many as 20,000 people are currently wrongfully incarcerated.
With such a high number of people fighting to clear their name, sometimes all they have is organisations like the Michigan Innocence clinic and people like Imran to turn to.
Imran and I had a fascinating conversation as to why this happens on such a high scale in the US, as well as the flaws in the system itself and of course the case of Temujin Kensu.
In our most recent catch up with everyone's favourite attorney at law Michael Leonard we discussed the self-defense case of David Bomber. Michael had himself recently wrapped up a trial where the defense's case was that of self defense. So Michael asked our Facebook community if they were on the jury of his case what would they vote, guilty of not?
So we put it to you with an overwhelming response, so today I take the results to Michael and see what the actual verdict in the case was.

No one saw the shooting that Temujin is convicted of committing. Instead, two men testified to seeing a stranger who possibly resembled Temujin at some point before or after the shooting. One of the witnesses was hypnotized before he testified.
No less than nine unimpeached neutral alibi witnesses testified to at trial, that Temujin was over 400 miles away at the time of this crime. The prosecution countered by suggesting that Temujin theoretically could have chartered a plane to go commit the murder and return in time to be seen by his alibi witnesses.
The biggest issue with that is the prosecution never offered any actual evidence to support this theory.
This is the insane story of Fred Freeman as told by him.

Recently I caught up with Jnr Salas after a massive decision was recently made in the court of appeals and it seems some in this case will be forced to answer some seriously tough questions.
Evaristo Salas was accused of firing two shots into Jose Arreola’s head in Sunnyside in November 1995.
He was tried as an adult and convicted by a jury of first-degree murder three days after his 16th birthday and was sentenced to nearly 33 years in prison. The gun used in the murder was never recovered and there was no physical evidence linking Jnr to the killing.
His conviction was based on the testimony of a police informant, Bill Bruhn, and Arreola’s girlfriend, Ofelia Cortez (formerly Gonzalez), who was there when her partner was shot.
Many TV shows have uncovered horrific truths about the so called 'evidence' in this case, yet Jnr still remains incarcerated.
This is his story, as told by him.

In fact Jack was the guy who dipped into his own pocket to pay for Jason to get some therapy that he so desperately needed.
So I have been listening to Dark Topic recently and have been really enjoying it! so lets show it some OMR love and jump on over and check it out here

On June 5th, 2010, the David Bomber would meet Larry Michael Worrell II for the very first time at the pool at the apartment complex where they both Lived. A short time later, Worrell and David left the pool area and started drinking. Later, Worrell and David would pick up David's girlfriend at the time, who also met Worrell for the first time that day.
David says that Michael, a former Marine would talk of his PTSD and become increasingly distraught, eventually snapping in a rage and placing David in a "military-style" choke hold to the point that he nearly lost consciousness, which occurred inside his own apartment.
It was at this point that his girlfriend got involved, enabling David to escape from Worrell's grasp where he then fled to his kitchen. After being pursued by Worrell, David armed himself with a STEAK KNIFE and stabbed him in the chest ONE TIME.
David says he would attempt first aid but it wasn't working. He would make the decision to flee the scene and was later arrested.
Sadly, on January 15th, 2011, Michael Worrell passed away from complications from the wound and David's charges would be upgraded to include second degree murder.
David lost his case of self-defense and was sentenced to 41 years 60 Days.
This is his story as told by him.

Today I catch up with the man they call the Alaskan Avenger. Recently Jason went in front of the parole board to see if he would be granted the chance to go home. In a strange turn of events Jason was granted his parole. However this would not happen for another five years, but why? I caught up with Jason to see how he was doing.
Jason Vukovich, also known as the "Alaskan Avenger," was a victim of physical and sexual abuse. He endured a childhood of beatings and rape at the hands of the man who was supposed to be his protector, his stepfather, Larry Lee Fulton. Fulton married Jason's mother and adopted him at the tender age of four.
The childhood abuse led Jason down a dark path to becoming the hammer-wielding "Alaskan Avenger" on the hunt for pedophiles. He is now serving 23 years at the Spring Creek Correctional Center for assaulting three pedophiles.
Over the next few episodes Jason talks me through his incredible story.

Today I have a quick catch up with the man from Michigan Anthony Duke. Tony recently gained himself a new title and with it, new hope and meaning.
Tony also talks me through a recent incident in his cell with his bunky and a shank.
On New Years eve of 2011 a landscaper by the name of Ronald Hauser was found dead in the basement of his secluded home, shot once through the heart. A month later detectives were knocking at the door of a friend of Ron's, Anthony Duke. Tony was later arrested, charged and found guilty of the crime, a crime he has always maintained he is innocent of.
After chatting with Tony and doing some digging around Livingston County I started to discover there seemed to be question marks over some of the people Ron associated with as well as questions about some of the police work done to convict Tony of the crime.

This is part one of my chat with Dr. Kyle Scherr, an expert in false confessions and wrongful convictions.
The fact that innocent suspects falsely confess to crimes they did not commit (or in some cases did not even happen) is incredibly counterintuitive and a decision that most people find unbelievable. Yet research makes clear and hundreds of exonerations clearly prove that innocent people admit to murders, sexual assaults, and other crimes that they did not commit.
Around 12% of all exonerations and almost 30% of DNA exonerations involve an innocent person falsely confessing. How do such unbelievable occurrences happen?
In this episode we discuss the cases of...
Adrian Thomas and the documentary 'Scenes of a crime' https://scenesofacrime.com/

We just wrapped up the case of Saul Contreras so as always it's time to sit down with OMR's resident attorney Michael Leonard to get his thoughts on the case.
Saul has spent almost 20 years in prison for a crime he says he did not commit.
The victim, Jazmine Contreras, was just 22 months old when she died on Thanksgiving weekend in 2003. That tragedy was compounded when police immediately developed a theory that Saul had inflicted injuries that caused her death and, through alleged threats and other tactics, coerced what Saul says is a false confession.
Over the next few episodes Saul talks us through what exactly happened that night.
I'd like to thank Jane Lewis and the team from Proclaim Justice for her help in facilitating this interview.

Today I catchup with Dorice Moore who has been moved to a county jail to await her new evidentiary hearing. As always things inside prison don't go as planned and Dorice is not moved in time to make the hearing date. I catch up with her in her new surroundiings in the county jail.
Dorice Moore was convicted of the murder of Abraham Lee Shakespeare, a crime she has always maintained she is innocent of. I first contacted Dorice more than four years ago after reading about her story and we've been chatting on and off ever since.
Dorice was charged and convicted for the murder of Abraham Lee Shakespeare more than twelve years ago, a crime that she has always maintained she is innocent of. Dorice has done a number of interviews over the years with different journalists and programs but from what I've seen and heard she's never really been given the opportunity to tell her side of the story without prejudice from the interviewer.
I am not here to prove her innocent or guilty I am simply here to allow her to tell her side of the story, a story that has fascinated and confused me the more I have delved into it.

Evaristo Salas was accused of firing two shots into Jose Arreola’s head in Sunnyside in November 1995. He was tried as an adult and convicted by a jury of first-degree murder three days after his 16th birthday and was sentenced to nearly 33 years in prison.
The gun used in the murder was never recovered and there was no physical evidence linking Jnr to the killing. His conviction was based on the testimony of a police informant, Bill Bruhn, and Arreola’s girlfriend, Ofelia Cortez (formerly Gonzalez), who was there when her partner was shot.
Many TV shows have uncovered horrific truths about the so called 'evidence' in this case, yet Jnr still remains incarcerated.
This is his story, as told by him.

We've just finished the story of Jason Vukovich, the man they call the Alaskan Avenger and today OMR's resident Attorney has his say.
Jason Vukovich, also known as the "Alaskan Avenger," was a victim of physical and sexual abuse. He endured a childhood of beatings and rape at the hands of the man who was supposed to be his protector, his stepfather, Larry Lee Fulton. Fulton married Jason's mother and adopted him at the tender age of four.
The childhood abuse led Jason down a dark path to becoming the hammer-wielding "Alaskan Avenger" on the hunt for pedophiles. He is now serving 23 years at the Spring Creek Correctional Center for assaulting three pedophiles.
Over the next few episodes Jason talks me through his incredible story.

As part of this show I get many messages and emails from many listeners and I truly appreciate all of them.
When a listener of the show Jill sent me a message a few weeks ago it certainly peaked my interest and I wanted to hear more.
Dorice Moore is the lady convicted of the murder of Abraham Lee Shakespeare, a crime she has always maintained she is innocent of.
I first contacted Dorice more than four years ago after reading about her story and we've been chatting on and off ever since. Dorice was charged and convicted for the murder of Abraham Lee Shakespeare more than twelve years ago, a crime that she has always maintained she is innocent of. Dorice has done a number of interviews over the years with different journalists and programs but from what I've seen and heard she's never really been given the opportunity to tell her side of the story without prejudice from the interviewer.
I am not here to prove her innocent or guilty I am simply here to allow her to tell her side of the story, a story that has fascinated and confused me the more I have delved into it.
For more on her story and to fins out how you can help her you can visit www.doricemoore.com

Ok legends! today I want to shine a spotlight on another True Crime show that I love.
Welcome to the trailer for one of Australasia’s favourite True Crime Investigative podcasts - GUILT. Actor and Lawyer Ryan Wolf, leaves no stone unturned in his quest to solve some of New Zealand’s most enduring cold cases. In this trailer, you’ll get a tiny taste of Season 2, which follows Ryan’s eight month investigation into a missing scientist.
Like one listener said, “GUILT is like one of those TV shows that you binge where you just can’t stop.” So be careful, this show is addictive!
You can find GUILT on all good streaming platforms or here for Apple listeners apple.co/guilt

Hey OMR family! so one question I see pop up from time to time in the One Minute Remaining Facebook group is "What can I listen too while I wait for the next episode of OMR to drop?".
The world of independent podcasting means shows like mine don't have massive marketing budgets to promote them so we rely on word of mouth and the help of other shows to introduce us to their audiences. So from time to time I want to use my platform to introduce you to a show I think you might like.
Inside the Tribe is an original true crime podcast that goes inside a sinister cult called the Twelve Tribes, a Christian fundamentalist sect with communities around the world, including in Australia. It tells the story of Marc and Rose, an idealistic young Sydney couple who unwittingly joined the Tribes in 1996, looking for a life of peace, harmony and communal living. But before long, Mark and Rose and their two young children find themselves in a world of bizarre rituals and extreme beliefs, under the influence of a charismatic leader. They are made virtual slaves, their family shuffled around the world to prevent them from escaping. So who are the 12 Tribes, and how their leader managed to build a global following , unchecked for 50 years?
Listen to inside the tribe by Tim Elliot and Camille Bianchi here

This is part 6 of my chat with Anthony Duke, a man serving a life sentence with out the possibility of parole.
On New Years eve of 2011 a landscaper by the name of Ronald Hauser was found dead in the basement of his secluded home, shot once through the heart. A month later detectives were knocking at the door of a friend of Ron's, Anthony Duke. Tony was later arrested, charged and found guilty of the crime, a crime he has always maintained he is innocent of.
After chatting with Tony and doing some digging around Livingston County I started to discover there seemed to be question marks over some of the people Ron associated with as well as questions about some of the police work done to convict Tony of the crime.

In one of my last phone conversations with Emilia Carr, the woman serving two life sentences for murder and kidnapping (A crime she's always maintained she's innocent of) she was frustrated and angry at how the conditions within the prison were deteriorating. Lack of sleep, poor conditions and the constant distain and lack of empathy shown by the prison officers.
She also went on to voice her frustration about how movies and TV almost glamourise prison and crime, shows like 'Orange is The New Black' make out that prison is not all that bad, its pretty comfortable and just a place to kick back and do your time. The reality, she says, couldn't be further from the truth,
So does pop culture, movies and TV glamourise this harsh world and if so who's to blame? It's an interesting topic and one that I wanted to explore! so I sat down with Simon and Sonia from the pop culture podcast to discuss exactly that.

Today is part 3 of my chat with Emilia Carr, once the youngest woman on death row in the state of Florida. Emilia along with her co-defendant Joshua Fulgham were arrested, tried and convicted for the kidnap and murder of Heather Strong, a mother of two from Mississippi and wife to Josh. Emilia has always maintained her innocents and has been fighting to clear her name since the murder occurred back in 2009.
Emilia had what can only be described as a horrendous childhood. Subjected to sexual abuse by her father from the age of 4 till she spoke out at 15 she was eventually placed in the care of the state along with her sister. Married at just 16 and pregnant with her first child Emilia would go on to have a number of, as she puts it, flings with many men, as well as three more children to different men.
Emilia would meet Josh one day in the front yard of one of her children's fathers home. A very volatile and violent man Josh was no stranger to police and would often be locked up after becoming violent towards Heather.
In 2009 Heather Strong would go missing just eight days after Josh is released from jail for pointing a shotgun at her during an argument. Detectives bring Josh in for questioning and its not long after that, they also bring in Emilia who is eight months pregnant. The days of interrogations begin and would conclude with a shocking admission from Josh, one that would change Emilia's life forever.

We've just wrapped up the story of Kimberly Boone, so It's time to sit down with Attorney Michael Leonard to find out his opinion on the case. With decades of trial experience dealing with high profile cases Michael gives us an insight into the criminal justice system like no one else can.
Kim was, as she puts it, a 'normal suburban mum' raising two boys and married to a man she says was her best friend, a man she never argued with. A series of events would lead to the eventual arrest of Kim for pre meditated attempted murder, after a shooting at her home in the early hours one morning, Kim says she accidently shot her husband thinking he was an intruder.
After supplying police with a statement she was instantly arrested and charged with his attempted murder. While in jail awaiting her trial she would be charged with another count of pre meditated attempted murder against her husband and arson for a house fire that occurred four months prior to the shooting.
Kim has always maintained she is innocent of these crimes and has been fighting for 14 years to clear her name. As always I'm not here to try and prove her innocent or guilty, just give her the opportunity to tell her story, a story I'm sure you will agree is quite incredible.

Kim has always maintained she is innocent of these crimes and has been fighting for 14 years to clear her name. As always I'm not here to try and prove her innocent or guilty, just give her the opportunity to tell her story, a story I'm sure you will agree is quite incredible.

Welcome back to One Minute Remaining.
Today is part three of my chat with Kimberly Boone. Kim was, as she puts it, a 'normal suburban mum' raising two boys and married to a man she says was her best friend, a man she never argued with. A series of events would lead to the eventual arrest of Kim for pre meditated attempted murder, after a shooting at her home in the early hours one morning, Kim says she accidently shot her husband thinking he was an intruder.

Welcome to part five of the Dorice Moore and Abraham Lee Shakespeare story.
In todays episode we answer a listener question in regards to Dorice's case as well as sit down and chat with Trial Lawyer Michael Leonard, Partner at Leonard Trial Lawyers LLC. With well over a decade of trial experience in the U.S we are extremely grateful to have someone of Michael's caliber join us to discuss this complex case.
Dorice was charged and convicted for the murder of Abraham Lee Shakespeare more than twelve years ago, a crime that she has always maintained she is innocent of. Dorice has done a number of interviews over the years with different journalists and programs but from what I've seen and heard she's never really been given the opportunity to tell her side of the story without prejudice from the interviewer.
I am not here to prove her innocent or guilty I am simply here to allow her to tell her side of the story, a story that has fascinated and confused me the more I have delved into it.
This is the final wrap up of many chats I have had with Dorice. However we will continue to check in with Dorice during this season as we not only hear the story from her side but also follow her journey as she fights to clear her name.

Hi, my names Jack Laurence, a radio host of fourteen years and a lover of crime podcasts, In fact I love them so much that I’ve quit my job to make one.
So what’s this podcast all about? In this series I’ll be interviewing many inmates who are all serving lengthy sentences for some pretty serious crimes. From arson to attempted murder and even murder itself and everything in between. Some who say they are innocent of the crimes they have been convicted of and others who say their convictions don't match the crimes. Now I'm not here to convince you of their innocence or their guilt I’m simply here to let them tell their stories.
So what’s different about this? Well with most crime podcasts you sit there I talk at you, tell you a story and interview people and we move on. However, I want YOU to get involved, now I know in the past listening to crime podcasts I sit their and think, but wait you missed this important comment or what about this person or that? unanswered questions that I wish the host had asked or explored.
That’s where you come in.
I’m in regular contact with all of the inmates I chat with so while listening to these stories and interviews if you think I’ve missed something, maybe an avenue I haven’t explored or something I went too soft or you just have a general question you want answered then tell me and we’ll do it! This is your podcast, this is your chance to join me in the investigation.
So if you have a question or a comment then jump on social media or email me all the details are in the show notes and I will pose your questions to the inmates.
So lets do it!
