Lester Bower Jr: “Controversial Execution”丨MURDERISH Ep. 111

The American Justice System was created, in part, to ensure that all Americans get fair and impartial

administration of justice. But, the system is by no means perfect and sometimes the wrong person is

convicted of a serious crime. But what happens when a person is sentenced to death and years later, new

evidence is brought to light that casts doubt on their guilt? Lester Bower Jr. maintained his innocence for

decades and then, new witnesses came forward and backed up Bower’s claim of innocence. Would this

be enough to save him from being executed?
