When Jeremy Scott confessed that he - and not Leo Schofield - murdered Michelle Schofield in 1987, the state of Florida refused to believe him. Journalist Gilbert King's quest to exonerate Leo drew him closer into Jeremy's background and the family who drifted away from him. Convinced the key to clearing Leo's name included proving Jeremy's involvement in a separate unsolved murder, King doubled down on his investigation, turning up new leads. But the effort brought King new understanding of the convict as he takes stock of his life and contemplates the consequences of his actions. In season two of the critically acclaimed podcast series “Bone Valley” from Lava for Good and Signal Co. 1, King focuses on the man responsible for Leo's wrongful conviction and develops an unlikely connection. He also works as a kind of advocate for Jeremy, working to set the record straight about his many crimes and do right by the many people he's hurt - including Leo Schofield.OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "BONE VALLEY" SEASON TWO BEGIN IN THE FINAL TEN MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.

In 1987, 18-year-old Michelle Schofield was found dead in a phosphate pit in Florida. Two years later, her husband Leo was convicted and sentenced to life in prison. Fifteen years later, previously unidentified fingerprints matched Jeremy Scott--a violent teenager who lived nearby. Jeremy has since confessed to Michelle's murder. Yet, Leo Schofield remains behind bars. In season 2 of Bone Valley, host Gilbert King turns his focus on Jeremy Scott. He attempts to find out what turned Jeremy into a cold-blooded killer and who else may have suffered his wrath. King is the author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning book, "Devil in the Grove," which led to the exonerations of four innocent men.Sample episode available here:Https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-bone-valley-101763565/episode/introducing-bone-valley-season-2-271378968/ Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.
By taking Michelle’s life, Jeremy not only shattered her family’s world—he also took Leo’s freedom. Now, in an unlikely and unexpected moment—these two men, connected by Michelle Schofield’s murder, speak at last, their conversation heavy with the weight of the past.Leo offers something unexpected: forgiveness and gratitude. And Jeremy responds with something he’s never truly given before: an apology. As Gilbert brings Justin the answers he’s been looking for, Justin feels a weight lift. He no longer sees himself as an echo of his father’s worst acts. And for the first time, Jeremy and Justin begin writing to each other. Their letters reveal a new side of Jeremy—vulnerable, searching, deeply human. This is not the end of the story. It’s the beginning of something neither man thought possible: a relationship. In the end, redemption isn’t about escaping the truth, but about searching for it, confronting it, and finding the humanity still buried beneath.

Meri is a housecleaner in North Florida. She didn’t know Jeremy. She just listened to Bone Valley. And she wrote him a letter. Their friendship becomes a lifeline—something neither of them expected, and both of them needed. Through Meri, we see Jeremy as someone craving connection, terrified of being unloved, and trying to become a man his son might one day want to know. When Jeremy finds out Justin wants to talk, it’s as if something inside him shifts. For the first time, there’s hope. A chance to become the version of himself he never thought possible.

Some truths never see the light. Gilbert has long believed that Jeremy Scott is responsible for more deaths than the state acknowledges—especially the unsolved murder of a cab driver in Intercession City. He’s tried everything he can think of to bring attention to the case, but the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office will not cooperate. Then, out of nowhere, a retired detective—the one who led the investigation that resulted in the arrest and eventual acquittal—reaches out to Gilbert, offering to help. The State finally agrees to reopen the cab driver case, but the lines between author and advocate blur. Gilbert works with Jeremy—an unlikely collaborator—to chase the truth and bring resolution to a family that’s waited decades. But justice doesn’t always wait. And it doesn’t always come.

Breaking Down "Bone Valley" Season 1 With Gilbert King Part 1 What if the man in prison isn't the killer—but the real suspect confessed, and nothing changed? In 1987, Michelle Schofield vanished. Days later, her body was found—and her husband, Leo, was convicted. But now, Pulitzer Prize-winner Gilbert King is uncovering the disturbing truth behind Leo Schofield's decades-long incarceration. A judge turned whistleblower, a witness with a history of delusions, and a justice system that seemed more interested in closing the case than solving it. Leo was across town with witnesses when Michelle was allegedly killed—so why is he still in prison? And how did the real suspect's fingerprints on Michelle's car not lead to justice? King's deep dive into the case, now revealed in Bone Valley Season 2, exposes the tangled web of small-town loyalties, prosecutorial maneuvering, and a defense that never stood a chance. This is the story of a man who never stopped saying he was innocent—and the journalist who believed him. #BoneValley #LeoSchofield #MichelleSchofield #GilbertKing #WrongfulConviction #TrueCrimePodcast #FloridaJusticeSystem #ColdCase #InnocentManInPrison #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

I continue my conversation with Gilbert King, the host of Bone Valley, on the relationship that's developed between Jeremy Scott, the man who says he killed Michelle Schofield, and Leo Schofield, who was convicted of her murder. In Part 2 of this conversation, we discuss the evidence against Jeremy, his confession to another crime that could result in a death sentence, Leo's friends who were also inmates who watch over Jeremy and profound questions about the legacy of the Jim Crow South on its current criminal justice system and whether a person who cannot be rehabilitated to the point joining society can be redeemed.Contact me at silverliningshandbookpod@gmail.comCheck out the Silver Linings Handbook website at:https://silverliningshandbook.com/Check out our Patreon to support the show at:https://www.patreon.com/thesilverliningshandbookJoin our Facebook Group at:https://www.facebook.com/groups/1361159947820623Visit the Silver Linings Handbook store to support the podcast at:https://www.bonfire.com/store/the-silver-linings-handbook-podcast-storeVisit The True Crime Times Substack at:https://truecrimemessenger.substack.comThe Silver Linings Handbook podcast is a part of the ART19 network.

Today we have the honor of speaking with Pulitzer Prize-winning author and the mastermind behind the podcast Bone Valley, Gilbert King. Known for his deep dives into the complexities of criminal justice, Gilbert has spent years unraveling the haunting story of Leo Schofield, a man wrongfully convicted for the murder of his wife. In this fascinating bonus episode, we discuss the emotional toll of telling such a gripping and complex story, the challenges of turning a multi-decade case into a podcast, and what it's like working with the very people involved in these crimes. From Leo's resilience in the face of a wrongful conviction to the unexpected twists in season two involving Jeremy Scott, Gilbert shares behind-the-scenes insights into the making of Bone Valley. We also explore the emotional journey of forgiveness and redemption, and the powerful relationships that have emerged from this case, like the bond between Leo and Jeremy. Through the raw interviews and complex storytelling, Gilbert reveals what it was like to uncover layers of truth that had been buried for years. You won't want to miss this heartfelt conversation about justice, the human side of crime stories, and the impact of storytelling in shedding light on the truth.

As Gilbert’s relationship with Jeremy deepens, it’s tested by Jeremy’s darkest instincts. After a long silence, Jeremy reveals he’s been thrown into solitary confinement because he stabbed another inmate—possibly in self-defense. Possibly not. Gilbert is forced to reckon with the contradictions: the man trying to right past wrongs, and the man still capable of harm. In letters and phone calls, in moments of rage and vulnerability, Jeremy opens a window into who he is now… and what still haunts him. Even in solitary confinement, Jeremy begins to connect: with Gilbert, through books the author sends him, and eventually, with himself.

Through exclusive prison recordings and raw conversations, King uncovers Scott's violent past, a justice system that ignores undeniable truth, and the unsettling bond that forms between a journalist and a killer. Why does a confessed murderer remain free while an innocent man languishes? How does the system justify its failures?

Gilbert King, the host of the hit podcast Bone Valley, joins me to discuss Season 2 and the relationship between Leo Schofield Jr., who was accused of killing his wife Michelle, and Jeremy Scott, the man who said he killed her.

Justin’s life has been shaped by absence—of answers, of explanations, and his father. Now that he’s reaching back, he’s haunted by what he might find: rumors of brutality, inherited darkness, a legacy of violence. As Gilbert helps Justin trace the moments that defined Jeremy’s path—especially the day he killed Donald Moorehead—Justin begins to confront an impossible question: if Jeremy had been stopped sooner, Leo would not have spent three decades in prison, but would Justin even exist? This is not just a story about a murder. It’s about what we inherit, what we carry, and the fear that we might be made of the very things we fear most.

After Bone Valley Season 1, something unexpected happened: people began to respond to Jeremy Scott—not for who he was, but for what he did—finally telling the truth. Among those drawn in is someone who has every reason not to be: Jeremy’s son, Justin. Now 35, Justin has never met his father, never wanted to. But something’s shifted. He wants answers. Through a conversation years in the making, Justin’s mother Jami opens up about the relationship she once had with Jeremy—a relationship she’s never fully shared with anyone. Now, through Gilbert, mother and son begin to uncover a truth that’s been buried for decades.

Começa agora o POD NOTÍCIAS, a sua dose semanal de informação sobre o mercado de podcasts no Brasil e no mundo! Falando de Serra Negra eu sou Leo Lopes, hoje é segunda-feira, dia 15 de abril de 2024 e esta é a nossa décima primeira edição! Sabia que você pode anunciar com a gente aqui no Pod Notícias? Se você tem uma marca, produto ou serviço e quer atingir um público qualificado que se interessa pelo podcast aqui no Brasil, o nosso público é o seu público. Manda um e-mail pra gente no contato@podnoticias.com.br, que a gente vai ter o maior prazer em conversar com você. Além disso, se você quiser colaborar com a gente, mandar texto, mandar pauta, também é muito bem-vindo, e pode fazer isso também pelo mesmo e-mail. 1 - Abrindo as notícias desta edição, você já pensou no quanto os podcasts são uma mídia acessível pra pessoas que tem alguma deficiência? O áudio funciona pra quem não tem visão, a transcrição do áudio funciona pra quem não tem audição, e tanto o podcaster quanto as plataformas estão buscando cada vez mais formas de deixarem os podcasts cada vez mais inclusivos. Quantas mídias a gente vê fazendo isso? Não muitas, concorda? Então esse ano a gente vai seguir o exemplo da empresa nigeriana de tecnologia Wokpa, que iniciou essa conversa, e reconhecer os podcasts como ferramentas de inclusão. Com os podcasts, as pessoas com deficiência podem compartilhar as suas histórias, se conectar com outras comunidades, quebrar estereótipos e buscar as mudanças sociais que a gente precisa. Fora que é uma mídia de fácil consumo, o que é ideal pra pessoas com qualquer tipo de limitação. Quer fazer a sua parte pra uma podosfera ainda mais inclusiva? Não é nada difícil. Você só precisa transformar a acessibilidade em uma das prioridades do seu programa, sempre conversar com vozes diversas e ser um aliado das mudanças que promovam a inclusão. Assim a gente cria uma podosfera cada vez melhor e mais rica. Link 2 - Na semana passada, o site Substack publicou no seu blog o texto "Como os podcasters estão monetizando com o Substack", falando um pouco sobre o que a nossa comunidade têm feito pra ganhar alguns trocados na plataforma - que é, na verdade um site focado em newsletters. De acordo com a coluna, os podcasters geram um modelo de negócios baseado no relacionamento direto com a audiência. Essa relação cria nos ouvintes um senso maior de engajamento e apoio ao criador de conteúdo, que monetiza no Substack criando produtos complementares, episódios exclusivos pra assinantes e programas de áudio e vídeo que são enviados direto pros e-mails dos ouvintes. E isso tudo funciona direitinho porque a plataforma já tem o serviço de assinaturas, mesmo quando é só pras newsletters de texto. As formas de pagamento são flexíveis, o que facilita ainda mais pro ouvinte de podcast que quer contribuir com seus criadores de conteúdo preferidos. Então se você tá naquela fase de tentar bolar um plano de assinaturas pro seu programa, ou uma forma acessível de monetização que não dependa só de publicidade, vale dar uma olhadinha nos serviços do Substack, e ver se o que eles oferecem serve pro seu projeto. Link 3 - E estudos recentes sobre o mercado de players de podcast, indicam um crescimento robusto que vai acontecer até 2032. Essa informação vem de uma pesquisa sobre aplicativos do Market Reports World, que é um relatório de mercado mesmo, daqueles que são criados pra empresas e indústrias, com todo tipo de informação e variável. Esses relatórios não são nada baratos, esse por exemplo sai pela bagatela de quase 4 mil dólares se você não for um assinante do Market Reports, mas é claro que a gente do Pod Notícias reuniu as informações mais importantes pra nós, produtores de podcast. Uma tendência chave pros próximos anos, é o interesse dos consumidores em empresas mais alinhadas com a consciência ambiental e sustentabilidade. Além disso, a gente vai continuar vendo cada vez mais integração de tecnologia nos players de áudio e também nos produtos, utilizando tecnologias como inteligência artificial, machine-learning e blockchain. E o que garante essa projeção sobre o crescimento do mercado de players até 2032, é a Taxa de Crescimento Anual Composta, cujo número dobrou na última década. Vale lembrar que o relatório considera os impactos da pandemia de Covid-19 e a guerra da Rússia com a Ucrânia e as projeções continuam tendo números muito altos. Então, agora, é esperar pra ver. Link AINDA EM NOTÍCIAS DA SEMANA: 4 - Na última sexta-feira, dia 12, aconteceu o evento online de comemoração do aniversário do Headliner, o site que transforma podcasts em vídeos e audiogramas - que a gente utiliza bastante também aqui na Rádiofobia Podcast Network. Já são 6 anos de operação do Headliner, e nesse período, mais de 1 milhão e 300 mil podcasters em 193 países usaram seus serviços para criar 72 milhões e 900 mil minutos de podcasts exportados. Se você passasse sua vida inteira ouvindo os conteúdos que foram transformados em audiogramas no Headliner, não conseguiria ouvir todos, porque, no total, são mais de 138 ANOS de conteúdo. São mais de 17 milhões de vídeos criados e mais de 25 milhões de minutos transcritos. É muita coisa mesmo. Além de criar audiogramas, o Headliner também oferece vários recursos para edição, transcrição, promoção e conexão de podcasts em diferentes plataformas. É uma ferramenta bem bacana, que a gente mesmo usa aqui no Pod Notícias uma automação que manda direto pro YouTube, por exemplo, e facilita bastante a nossa vida. E é muito legal saber esses números exatos do quanto a empresa já auxiliou podcasters no mundo todo. Link 5 - Você conhece o Podscan? O Podscan.fm é um serviço que alerta os usuários quando seu nome, marca ou palavras-chave são mencionados em podcasts - em questão de minutos - e que possui um banco de dados completo com episódios transcritos e pesquisáveis. O Arvid Kahl, CEO do Podscan, anunciou na última semana que eles receberam um grande investimento da empresa Calm Company Fund, depois de já ter negado várias ofertas de outras empresas. Com o financiamento, o plano agora é acelerar o crescimento do scanner, implementando GPUs em nuvem para aumentar a capacidade de processamento. Além disso, o Arvid Kahl também apresentou a nova identidade visual do Podscan, que marca uma nova fase da empresa, mais direta e profissional. Ele enfatizou bastante sobre como tem sido positiva a experiência de transformar a sua empresa em uma construção pública e encorajou outros empreendedores a também adotarem essa prática nos seus negócios. Link 6 - E foram divulgados os vencedores dos Prêmios Ondas Globais de Podcast 2024. Os prêmios vão ser entregues em uma cerimônia agendada pro dia 19 de junho no Circo Price Theater em Madrid. Essa é a terceira edição do evento, que premiou 18 vencedores em 16 categorias, além de ter feito 3 menções honrosas. O maior patrocinador da premiação é a Podimo. A seleção dos vencedores foi feita entre os 70 finalistas anunciados em abril pelo júri, que avaliou 1.252 indicações de 19 países. Além das categorias regulares, os prêmios de Podcast Revelação e Contribuição Vitalícia para a Indústria de Podcasts na Espanha e na América Latina foram decididos por voto direto do painel de juízes. A lista completa de vencedores está disponível na nossa página no LinkedIn do Pod Notícias. Link E MAIS: 7 - O Podtrac divulgou os rankings das principais editoras e redes de podcasts nos Estados Unidos e no mundo, referentes ao mês de março de 2024. Os grandes destaques foram as entradas das redes iHeart Audience Network e da Acast no ranking americano. Essas empresas já são conhecidas por produção de áudio, mas as redes, especificamente, produzem e vendem peças de publicidade. Além disso, a Acast foi destacada como a editora número 1 global, com 405 milhões de downloads em março, e ficou em terceiro lugar entre as editoras nos Estados Unidos. Essa é a primeira vez que a Acast fica em primeiro lugar mundial. Se a empresa antes não era vista como tão competitiva no mercado, agora vai ser, com certeza. Link 8 - E mais um podcast vai ser adaptado para uma série de televisão: o programa da vez é o americano Bone Valley, de investigação criminal, baseado no trabalho de Gilbert King e Kelsey Decker. O programa é bem conhecido na comunidade podcaster e já ganhou vários prêmios, entre eles dois Ambie Awards, e o "Escolha dos Ouvintes" no Signal Awards. Além disso, as pautas do podcast influenciaram positivamente em casos criminais reais - igual aconteceu com o Projeto Humanos aqui no Brasil, o Caso Evandro, por exemplo. A adaptação pra televisão vai ficar sob o comando da roteirista Dana Stevens, veterana de Hollywood, e a produção geral vai ser feita por Cathy Schulman, que é vencedora de um Oscar de produção de TV. Gilbert e Kelsey já confirmaram que, enquanto a série é produzida, eles também estarão trabalhando na segunda temporada do Bone Valley em podcast. A primeira temporada está disponível na íntegra em todas as principais plataformas de podcast. Link 9 - E nas dicas de produção dessa semana, quem deu as instruções sobre como promover o seu podcast nas redes sociais, foi o Spotify for Podcasters. No seu perfil do X/Twitter, a empresa compartilhou dicas sobre como usar o Instagram, que é a melhor rede para se postar conteúdo em imagens, o X, a melhor rede para conteúdo escrito, o TikTok, melhor rede para conteúdo rápido, e o Facebook, a melhor rede para construir uma comunidade. Você quer saber como usar as redes sociais a favor do seu podcast? Então não deixa de conferir a matéria na íntegra, lá no LinkedIn do Pod Notícias, onde a gente já traduziu, adaptou, e deixou a informação prontinha pra te ajudar com essa parte. Link HOJE NO GIRO SOBRE PESSOAS QUE FAZEM A MÍDIA: 10 - O Luan Alencar, editor de podcasts que já trabalhou com a Globo, CNN, B9 e Folha de São Paulo, anunciou na última semana que vai dar uma oficina de produção de podcasts - com foco principal em edição, que é a maior expertise dele. As aulas vão acontecer online, via Zoom, a partir do dia 27 de abril. Depois das primeiras aulas, os participantes vão criar um podcast experimental para aplicar o que aprenderam, e na última aula, o Luan vai dar todo o feedback e sugestões de melhoria para cada podcast. Além disso, durante o curso, os participantes vão ter acesso a um grupo no Whatsapp onde vão poder tirar todas as dúvidas que tiverem. Se você tem interesse em participar da oficina, todas as informações principais e o formulário de inscrição estão disponíveis na página do LinkedIn do Pod Notícias, e nos perfis do Luan nas redes sociais. Link 11 - E na semana passada nós não tivemos enquete e nem Caixinha de Perguntas no Instagram, mas essa semana ela está de volta! E é em total espírito de colaboração e camaradagem, que a equipe do Pod Notícias quer saber: Qual conselho você daria para alguém que está começando agora a produzir seu próprio podcast? O nosso Instagram é o @pod.noticias e o link vai estar na descrição desse episódio, então segue a gente por lá e não deixa de participar das nossas interações, porque a gente gosta muito mesmo de ler as respostas dos nossos ouvintes e amigos. Como sempre, a caixinha de perguntas vai ficar no ar por 24h nos nossos stories, então deixe a sua contribuição o quanto antes. Instagram do Pod Notícias SOBRE LANÇAMENTOS: 12 - O grupo americano de comediantes The Lonely Island anunciou o lançamento do seu novo podcast com Seth Meyers, e fez uma promoção um tanto quanto... Incomum, no mínimo. Durante alguns programas de entrevista, o Andy Samberg disse que, abre aspas: "Nós não somos bons e eu não gosto do programa". O Jorma Taccone, um dos seus parceiros de bancada, concordou, quando disse que "o podcast era só uma desculpa pra ele ter a oportunidade de ver os amigos" (até aí, eu tô fazendo isso há 15 anos...). O último integrante do programa, Akiva Schaffer, foi ainda mais crítico e disse que não só ele não gostou do programa, mas ele também ficou tão incomodado de ouvir a própria voz, que vai ser uma pessoa mais quieta a partir de agora. Pra qualquer outro podcast essa "anti-promoção" poderia ser desastrosa, mas pra eles, parece que funcionou - quem já conhecia a comédia auto-depreciativa do grupo, ficou ainda mais curioso pra ouvir o programa, que já está disponível nas principais plataformas - em inglês, é claro. Link 13 - Hoje também temos lançamento de equipamento, com a Shure anunciando o novo microfone MV7+ Podcast Microphone, uma versão aprimorada do já excelente modelo de microfone para podcasts. O MV7+ apresenta melhorias de design , iluminação embutida e novos recursos de software DSP, e ele pode ser conectado direto no computador ou em uma interface de áudio. As gravações de altíssima qualidade são garantidas por recursos como Tecnologia de Isolamento de Voz, Modo de Nível Automático Aprimorado e Pop-Filter digital. O microfone também oferece três tipos de reverb e um painel LED personalizável. O Shure MV7+ já está disponível para venda no valor de 279 dólares. Link RECOMENDAÇÃO NACIONAL: 14 - E hoje na nossa recomendação nacional da semana, a indicação vai especialmente pros apaixonados por inovação, carreira e tecnologia: é o podcast Cabeça de Lab, produzido pelo Luizalabs, que é o laboratório de inovação e tecnologia do Magalu, e editado pela Rádiofobia Podcast e Multimídia. O programa é semanal e coloca membros da equipe do Luizalabs, como o Yohan Rodrigues e a Julia Peixoto, frente a frente com convidados que são destaque no setor. As conversas sempre são super descontraídas e informativas - é um podcast cabeça, como o nome já sugere, mas que é muito confortável de ouvir. Os episódios nunca são redundantes, sempre dá pra aprender coisa nova, descobrir insights novos sobre carreira e negócios, e vale muito a pena conferir. O Cabeça de Lab está disponível em todas as principais plataformas, e é publicado todas as quintas-feiras. Não deixa de conhecer e de assinar no seu agregador de podcast preferido.

One July night in 1995, Deputy Sheriff William G. Hardy was shot behind the Crown Sterling Suites hotel in Birmingham, Alabama. At the same time as the murder, at least ten people saw Toforest Johnson four miles away, at a popular nightclub called Tee's Place. But detectives zeroed in on him as a main suspect in Deputy Hardy's murder anyway, ultimately resulting in Toforest being tried, convicted, and sentenced to death. For over a quarter century, Toforest has been confined to a 5' by 8' cell on Alabama's death row. In 2019, investigative journalist Beth Shelburne began covering the case, going down a disturbing rabbit hole revealing many unsettling facts that cast grave doubts about Toforest's guilt. The facts she found tear at the very foundation of the American criminal justice system: No eyewitnesses or physical evidence tied Toforest to the murder; the state tried to convict a different man for the same crime; and perhaps most disturbing of all, Toforest's conviction relied on an ‘earwitness' – a woman who claimed to have eavesdropped on an incriminating phone call, a woman whom prosecutors paid for her testimony, in secret. That payment was not disclosed to the jury, Toforest, or his lawyers until after he had been on death row for 17 years. From the team behind the award-winning hit podcast Bone Valley, Lava for Good's Earwitness is an 8-episode docuseries that asks the question, “How did an innocent man end up on death row — and why is the state still trying to execute him over the objection of the prosecutor who put him there?” Shelburne's unprecedented access to key players—the lead detective, lead prosecutor, witnesses, jurors, and the earwitness herself— illuminate a story filled with disturbing twists, frustrating ambiguities, and shocking admissions. The story of Toforest Johnson and the state's enthusiasm for the death penalty in the face of such troubling evidentiary flaws brings to light the failings of a criminal justice system run amok. Earwitness is a production of Lava for Good Podcasts in association with Signal Co. No1.
In 1995, Deputy Sheriff William Hardy was shot while moonlighting at a Birmingham hotel. An informant told police the shooter was Toforest Johnson. Even though ten people saw him in a nightclub at the time of the crime, detectives believed they had their man. But after Yolanda Chambers's statements were discredited, prosecutors turned to Violet Ellison who said she overheard Johnson confess on a three-way phone call. Years later, even the prosecutor has doubts about the so-called “earwitness” and whether Johnson should be on Alabama's death row.From the producers of “Bone Valley” comes “Earwitness.” Host Beth Shelburne picks apart the original investigation, police conduct, and the credibility of the key witness. What does it say when even the people who put an innocent man on death row can't get the justice system to right a wrong?OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "EARWITNESS" BEGIN IN THE FINAL 9 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.In Crime of the Week: It's a small turd after all.

On July 16, 1949, 17-year-old Norma Padgett and her estranged husband, Willie Padgett, reported to police that they had been attacked by four black men in Lake County, FL, with Norma claiming that the men had raped her. On the same day, police arrested 16-year-old Charles Greenlee, and 22-year-olds Samuel Shepherd and Walter Irvin. 26-year-old Ernest Thomas was hunted into the woods and gunned down by a mob of men, as he was also blamed for the attack. Despite weak evidence and testimonies tainted by racism, the remaining three were convicted and faced severe sentences, including life imprisonment and death. Jason is joined by Gilbert King, host of Bone Valley and Pulitzer-prize-winning author of Devil in the Grove which chronicles the story of the Groveland Four, as they came to be known, and future United States Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall's efforts to defend them in court.

From the production team that brought you the Wrongful Conviction series and Bone Valley, here is Episode 1 of our new podcast: Earwitness. If you like what you hear, you can listen to episode 2 right now wherever you get your podcasts or by clicking this link: http://lavaforgood.com/earlanding Journalist Beth Shelburne meets with former Alabama Attorney General Bill Baxley, who explains why he is deeply disturbed by the wrongful conviction of Toforest Johnson for the murder of Deputy Bill Hardy. Through her reporting on the case, Beth, like Baxley, is convinced that Toforest has no connection to the murder. She sets out to conduct an in-depth investigation into why detectives targeted him in the first place, how he was convicted, and why the State of Alabama is still seeking his execution today. Earwitness will be available every Tuesday wherever you get your podcasts. To hear episodes a week early and ad free, subscribe to Lava for Good+ on Apple Podcasts.

The story of Toforest Johnson and the state's enthusiasm for the death penalty in the face of such troubling evidentiary flaws brings to light the failings of a criminal justice system run amok.

One July night in 1995, Deputy Sheriff William G. Hardy was shot behind the Crown Sterling Suites hotel in Birmingham, Alabama. At the same time as the murder, at least 10 people saw Toforest Johnson four miles away at a popular nightclub called Tee's Place. But detectives zeroed in on him as a main suspect in Deputy Hardy's murder anyway, ultimately resulting in Toforest being tried, convicted, and sentenced to death. For over a quarter century, Toforest has been confined to a 5' by 8' cell on Alabama's death row. In 2019, investigative journalist Beth Shelburne began covering the case, going down a disturbing rabbit hole revealing many unsettling facts that cast grave doubts about Toforest's guilt. The facts she found tear at the very foundation of the American criminal justice system: No eyewitnesses or physical evidence tied Toforest to the murder; the state tried to convict a different man for the same crime; and perhaps most disturbing of all, Toforest's conviction relied on an "earwitness" – a woman who claimed to have eavesdropped on an incriminating phone call, a woman whom prosecutors paid for her testimony, in secret.
