🔒 Behind the Bars: The Charles Mamou Jr. Story — A Death Row Injustice 🔒
📺 Watch Now | 🎙️ True Crime | 💔 Wrongful Conviction
In this gripping episode of Behind the Bars, we sit down with Charles Mamou Jr., a man who has spent over 25 years on death row in Texas for a murder he says he didn’t commit — and the facts back him up.
Charles was a drug dealer who found himself caught in a violent setup: an attempted robbery at gunpoint, a woman caught in the crossfire, and a justice system that refused to seek the truth. According to Charles, he was ambushed by three individuals trying to steal $20,000 from him. Gunfire erupted in the dark, chaos ensued, and in the confusion, Charles escaped — only to be later accused of a murder he didn’t commit.
The real twist? The state’s key witness was one of the men who tried to rob Charles that night — the first case of its kind in American legal history.
With no forensic evidence, no DNA, and no physical link to the murder victim, Charles was still railroaded to death row in less than 90 days. His only “crime”? Refusing to testify and be labeled a snitch.
This is the raw, unfiltered story of injustice, survival, and a man fighting for the truth from behind the bars. Don’t miss this powerful interview — it will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about the justice system.
