In Episode 17, Kyle and Lisa looked at the case against Richard Fairchild, who was convicted of the November 14, 1993 murder of his girlfriend's son, Adam Scott Broomhall. In a drunken rage, Fairchild struck, beat and burned the 3-year old, then threw him into a table, inflicting a fatal head injury. While advocates for Fairchild have never claimed he is actually innocent, they have challenged the OK Court of Criminal Appeal's holding that child abuse murder is a crime of general intent and have challenged Fairchild's culpability due to his alcohol and drug use and claims that he suffered from organic brain damage caused by multiple head injuries sustained during falls, fights and amateur boxing. They looked at the details of the crime, Fairchild's trial, direct appeal and state and federal post-conviction claims, along with his application for clemency ahead of his execution, currently scheduled for November 17, 2022.
