Thomas Martin Thompson, better known as Tommy Thompson, was executed in San Quentin State Prison on a muggy July evening in 1988. He was convicted of the rape and murder of Ginger Fleischli, an outgoing and kindhearted woman, after a night of drinking and smoking hashish. Although we will never know for certain what Thompson's role was in her death, it seems at least possible that he was innocent of these crimes. More likely, his roommate, Fleischli's ex-boyfriend, was responsible for the attack. Although Thompson could have been involved, he maintained his innocence until he was put to death. Host Matt Ralston talks to his co-host William Noguera, who knew Thompson, having served time with him on Death Row, where he still resides.
