In 1976 Tommy Zeigler was convicted of a quadruple murder and sent to death row, but he has always maintained his innocence. Decades after his conviction Tommy gets a new supporter, Lynn Marie-Carty, a private investigator who comes up with a new potential suspect. In this episode we talk about Tommy's post conviction fight for DNA testing, new theories about the murders developed by Lynn-Marie Carty, and I grow suspicious about why the Oakland Police Chief was spending so much of his time in Winter Garden outside of his jurisdiction.
