Rating: Explicit Published On: Thu Jun 19 2025
Description: On the morning of August 20, 2012, police and firefighters were called to a house fire in Detroit, MI. Bobby Cross and Darryl Simms died in the fire. Bobby’s long-term partner’s son, Duane Williams, was staying over the house that week, but he was not harmed in the fire. Rather, he was accused and ultimately charged with arson and felony murder. After some faulty expert testimony, an incentivized jailhouse witness and numerous Brady violations, Duane was convicted and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.  To learn more and get involved, visit:http://spot.fund/4ct5sxsc https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61572739177828 https://www.instagram.com/duanewilliams313/ https://www.youtube.com/@DIABLOYNS https://organizationofexonerees.com/ https://www.fireflyadvocates.org/ https://www.cooley.edu/academics/experiential-learning/innocence-project Wrongful Conviction with Ben Bowlin is a production of Lava For Good™ Podcasts in association with Signal Co.
