MONDAY 10/22, 5:40 PM (SESSION 11)

Director: Gregg Jamback
Producers: Gregg Jamback, Jamie Huss

Description:
Walking past Jacquetta Thomas' lifeless, brutally beaten body in September of 1991 changed Greg Taylor's life, and North Carolina's criminal justice system, forever. For seventeen years, Greg and his family fought to undo his wrongful conviction. It would take the creation of a unique, independent state agency - one vested with all the powers needed to determine innocence - and the revelation the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation misrepresented the truth in their scientific reporting, to set Taylor free.
