In this episode of The Lawmas Podcast, hosts Lacey and Lauren explore a powerful story of potential wrongful conviction. Lacey shares the case of Thomas James, her former client whom she believes was wrongfully convicted of murder. Despite cell phone records showing Thomas was never at the crime scene, eyewitness descriptions that didn't match him, and minimal evidence beyond the testimony of a getaway driver named Kier Johnson, Thomas received a 32-year sentence while Kier got probation. Lacey discovered after the trial that Kier had previously falsely accused someone in another murder case—information that wasn't disclosed to the defense. Despite these revelations and efforts to secure post-conviction relief, Thomas remains incarcerated after 11 years.
Lauren offers insights about jury deliberation pressures and the challenges of overturning convictions. The hosts conclude their series on wrongful convictions with a plea for listeners to share Thomas's story, hoping to bring attention to his case. Next week, The Lawmas Podcast will begin a new series focusing on millennial experiences!
