Seasons & Episodes
Episode Overview
In 1999, 19-year-old former high school basketball state champion and star football player Julius Jones was arrested days after a businessman was gunned down by a black man in a white suburb of Oklahoma City. At the time of the murder, Julius was a student at the University of Oklahoma on a partial academic scholarship, attempting to walk on to the basketball team. Nineteen years later, we hear from Tommy Griffin, father of NBA superstar Blake Griffin, who coached Julius; and in interviews from death row, Julius tells his version of events while federal public defenders retrace the steps that led to what they claim is a miscarriage of justice.
