I'm Nancy Glass, host of The Burden of Guilt Season

that destroyed two families. This is a story with twists
and turns that will leave you breathless.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
It is the sentence of this court that you serve
ninety nine years in the Department of preak.

It starts more than twenty five years ago, when New
Orleans was overwhelmed with gun violence. Late one night, eighteen

He pulls the gun and tells me to lie down
on the ground.

Speaker 1 (00:41):
Police were determined to find the man terrorizing the West
Bank of New Orleans.

Speaker 3 (00:47):
They said, do you recognize any of these men. I
pointed at one and I said, that's him.

Speaker 1 (00:54):
He identified twenty year old Jermaine Hudson as the perpetrator.
Jermaine was trying and convicted, with Bobby as the star witness,
and he was sentenced to ninety nine years in the
notorious angal of prison.

I got to be dreaming, accepting. I'm like, Lord, this
can't be real. I thought it was a mistaken identity.

the prosecutors, and a jury that your main hudson should
be in prison.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
I couldn't stop myself. After lying for so long, I
learned the best lie is partial truth.
