Zach and Stacey take an in-depth look at Oklahoma vs. Julius Jones. Below, you can read an overview of Julius’ case as stated on justiceforjuliusjones.com: "Julius is on death row despite maintaining his innocence and compelling evidence that he was wrongfully convicted. Julius’ co-defendant fit an eyewitness’s description of the shooter, while Julius did not. His co-defendant was the state’s key witness against him, and the prosecution repeatedly told jurors at Julius’ trial that his co-defendant would serve a 30-year sentence in exchange for his testimony. However, after pleading guilty to the crime, Julius’ co-defendant was released after only 15 years and is now a free man. In a case riddled with odious racial discrimination — including a police officer’s use of a racial slur during Julius’ arrest and the State’s removal of all prospective black jurors except one —evidence shows that a juror used the n-word before jury deliberations at the sentencing phase."
