In my other show WANTED, where I interview men and women who were or who currently wanted by authorities, we told the story of Wild Bill and just how he ended up being sentenced to 46 years in a Panamanian prison.

Bill has never told his story past this point, until now. He talks us through the moment he was arrested and the years of corruption, drugs and violence inside different facilities in Panama before he would turn his life around after a visit from his mother who brought him a book that would set him off on a different path.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once one of America's most wanted men, Wild Bill, as he's been called by authorities, was arrested as he attempted to make his way into Nicaragua via Costa Rica on July 26, 2010.

Bill was accused of the murders of 5 people, murders that he would later confess to. Bill says he worked in Panama as a gun for hire, a hitman, for a cartel of sorts. He says he was driven by greed and a severe lack of any morals.

Bill says he's not the man he once was, he does not speak of the murders that he has committed or even so much as mention their names, he says he is haunted by his crimes and he focuses on doing good in the world in which he now finds himself.

Once arrested and convicted he was sentenced to over 40 years inside a Panamanian prison where he remains today. While incarcerated Bill has become the prisons Chaplin and holds regular services for the other incarcerated men. He's also written a book about his experiences inside one of the worlds worst and most violent prisons, the link to which is below. Not only has he written a book but he also does a daily audio diary which he posts on youtube and has a Facebook page 'Friends of Brother Bill' that he uses to stay in touch with people on the outside.

Recently we have been covering the story of Jeremy and Zachary Cain. Two men who were incarcerated as boys, growing up in the Alabama prison system have meant they have missed out on a lot of life's usual events. University, friendship's, careers, family and of course love.

For those astute listeners you would have heard in a number of episodes I talk to and refer to Jeremy's wife. Jeremy has been able to find love in an otherwise bleak situation and this is the story of how Jeremy and Amanda met, fell in love, got married and how they cope with the fact that Jeremy may spend many more years in prison before they can actually be together.

In November of 1986 a man named Scott Macklam was fatally shot in the car park of a community college in Port Huron Michigan.

Fred Freeman who now goes by Temujin Kensu who was over 400 miles away in Escanaba was subsequently arrested, tried and found guilty of the crime and remains in prison almost 37 years later.

No one saw the shooting that Temujin is convicted of committing. Instead, two men testified to seeing a stranger who possibly resembled Temujin at some point before or after the shooting. One of the witnesses was hypnotized before he testified.

No less than nine unimpeached neutral alibi witnesses testified to at trial, that Temujin was over 400 miles away at the time of this crime. The prosecution countered by suggesting that Temujin theoretically could have chartered a plane to go commit the murder and return in time to be seen by his alibi witnesses.

The biggest issue with that is the prosecution never offered any actual evidence to support this theory.

This is the insane story of Fred Freeman as told by him.

On April 7, 2001 the lives of many would change forever. One man would lose his life, three young boys would be charged with murder and many families would be irreversible changed.

The community of Pleasant Grove in Alabama believed they knew what happened that day and believed these boys got what was deserved, until now.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is story of Jeremey Cain, Zachary Cain and Mark Harper. Three teenage boys that say the events of that day were self defense against a man with a piece of timber and plenty of vile threats. Others would claim it was a savage beating carried out with baseball bats on an unarmed man.

Jimmy Hill in his 40's would confront the boys after Mark Harper had been having issues with his step son. what followed was an altercation that quickly got out of control.

All three boys would be sentenced to 35 years for murder with Mark Harper being released after serving just three.

This is the story of that day as told by the boys who were there.
