One Minute Remaining - Stories from the inmates

Today I catch up with Tariq MaQbool, a man who was once looking at life behind bars with no way of getting home. However a recent commutation by the governor means that he could be going home in just four years time. However the fight is not over, Tariq is in a battle with the system on multiple fronts and he's not going to give up.

We recently covered the story of Christopher Bennette, a man convicted for murder, the murder of his abuser. Chris has spent decades fighting his conviction after being convinced to take a plea deal of 1800 years behind bars.

Chris's story went viral during COVID after a friend uploaded it online. The producers of the hit daytime TV show Dr Phil saw his story and had him on the show to talk to the doctor.

Chris says the only good thing to come out of that show was the lady who has become the love of his life and his biggest advocate on the outside and today I sit down for a chat with Chris's other half.

Today I catch up with a man who I'm asked about regularly. David Talley was handed a sentence fit for a murderer yet no one in his case died, no one was even harmed yet he was condemned to die behind bars.

David has spent years fighting to get a resentencing hearing in his case without any luck. At the end of the day when it comes to the 'Justice System' it's all about money. If you want help it doesn't come cheap and so far David hasn't had enough money to get the help he needs. Recently I got word that a relative of David's who came into some inheritance had come forward and said they wanted to use some of that to help him in his situation. So now David has money and an attorney who believes he can get David back in front of a judge.

As One Minute Remaining is set to tunr four I had an oppotnity recently to reflect on the last four years and how much this show has evolved and changed as have I.

Four years ago I set out to make an interesting podcast about teh Amercian criminal justice system with stories from those who have found themselves on the wrong side of the law. I could never have known how it would change or change me! Recently on a call with Tony Duke I realised just how much both of those things have happened over the last four years.

So this episode is a bit different to the norm! Just a case of thank you.

Today I catch up with Dwight Bergeron a man who has been incarcerated in the state of Louisiana for 34 years for a crime his supposed victims say never happened.

Earlier this year another man who had been sitting on Louisianas death row for 30 years was exonerated, could this mans case hold the key to getting Dwight back into court?
