When you kill someone and you're sentenced to prison "for the rest of your natural life," without the possibility of parole, you're done. Finished. Kaput. No more freedom for you, ever. Right? Right. Except. What does the "your natural life" mean, exactly? Especially when we live in an age where technology can actually revive someone who has literally died for a few seconds? And how does that phrase apply in the ostensibly cold, harsh light of legal interpretation? Enter one Benjamin Schreiber, a nasty fellow who was convicted of a brutal murder and was sentenced to spend the rest of his life in jail - but who is currently placing himself in the middle of a legal battle that could possibly alter how "life" sentences are doled out in the future. Join Melissa as she unravels the facts behind this case, and Schreiber's bold legal ploy to break free of his jail cell - by dying. More than once. SUBSCRIBE, RATE and REVIEW "JUST THE TIP-STERS" today! And if you like what you hear, give us a five-star review! Plus - don't forget - if you've got a tip for Melissa, leave her a voice mail message at (832) TIP-STER (832-847-7837) or send her an email at [email protected]
