In this gripping episode of Behind the Bars, the amazing researchers of the podcast There's Danger Here dives deep into the case files of Cedric Marks — a former MMA fighter with over 31 professional wins — now sitting on death row in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.
Marks was convicted of a brutal crime, but as we examine the evidence, serious doubts begin to surface. The victims had no defensive wounds, there was no DNA under their fingernails, no marks on Cedric’s hands — and yet he was sentenced to death. During the trial, Cedric suffered a mental breakdown and claimed responsibility, shouting “I did it” in court. But was that a confession… or a cry for help from a man on the edge?
Now, as he fights for his life on death row, new evidence points to the possibility that someone else may have committed the crime. In this episode, Jason Boss walks us through the files, the forensic details, and the troubling questions that remain unanswered.
Are we putting the right man to death?
