Michael Edwin Brown | Part 1 | 012

In West Virginia, three men were charged with the murder of two victims and only one was convicted.  Was the correct man convicted?  Was his trial legitimate?  Was a whole community wrong for standing by his innocence?  Where are they all at now?  Grab your caffeine, you’re going to need it on this wild rollercoaster of a case debating wrongful convictions and possible injustice.
