CNN Presents: Tortured Justice with Omar Jimenez

Tortured Justice: The Unlikeliest Man

Listen Later

James Gibson’s story might never have seen the light of day if not for one man — maybe the unlikeliest imaginable. Andrew Wilson’s relentless legal battle exposed a decades-long pattern of torture by Chicago police and the cover up that hid it.

This is part two of a three-part series. This episode contains descriptions of violence, including sexual violence.

Host: Omar Jimenez

Producers: Graelyn Brashear, Madeleine Thompson, Emily Williams, Kyra Dahring, Sofia Sanchez, and Lauren Kim  

Editor: Lacy Roberts 

Technical director: Dan Dzula  

Executive producer of CNN Podcasts: Steve Lickteig  

Production help from: Jake Sorgen, Joe DeCeault, David Guggenheim, Jessica Pupovac

Special thanks to: Ferlon Webster, Jr. and Ed Kelly


An earlier version of this episode stated James Gibson's initial trial was in 1990. It was in 1991. This episode has been updated to reflect that change.
