In this gripping episode, we bring you the story of a man who has spent over 20 years behind bars in Virginia for a crime he doesn’t remember committing. His journey through the criminal justice system highlights a troubling issue many face: the coercion of plea deals.

With limited resources and an overworked public defender, he was pressured into accepting a plea deal—a decision he made under duress and with little understanding of its long-term consequences. Decades later, he reflects on the injustice of his situation and how the system failed him.

Through his powerful voice, we explore how plea deals, often presented as the fastest resolution, can strip away the rights of the accused, robbing them of their day in court and sometimes leading to unjust incarceration. This episode sheds light on the need for reform in a system where efficiency often outweighs fairness.

Tune in to hear his story, his fight for justice, and his call to action for awareness and change in the plea bargaining process.
