Are you ready to venture into the chilling conclusion of Brian Horn, a man who gained an appeal after four years on death row? This episode’s journey unveils the shocking twists and turns that led to Horn's conviction for first-degree murder and aggravated kidnapping being overturned. We navigate through the murky waters of pro se motions and the defense counsel's quandary about how to represent his client best. We dissect the lack of witnesses, sift through the circumstantial evidence, and scrutinize the defense's argument that the killing was merely a tragic accident.
But the drama doesn't stop there. In the heart of the story, we switch gears and delve into a horrifying yet interconnected storyline. We uncover the spine-chilling re-hearing of a civil case against the owner of Green Action Taxicab Company. We also shine a light on the tireless advocacy of Amy Fletcher, the mother of the victim, whose relentless fight has tightened laws around violent child sex offenders.
Brace yourselves, listeners, this is the conclusion to a journey you won't soon forget.
