PREVIEW: Unjust and Unsolved

DAISY
About this episode
From journalist Maggie Freleng and the Obsessed Network

The Innocence Project estimates that there are currently over 20,000 innocent people locked away in US prisons. These cases remain unsolved. Each week, Investigative Journalist Maggie Freleng tells the story of one of those people and takes a deep dive into the crime they were convicted of. Through her original interviews with the convicted, their lawyers, families, and friends, Freleng chronicles each inmate’s fight for exoneration and their hope that justice can still be served.

This preview features portions of Maggie's interview with J.J. Velasquez whose story will be featured in Season 1.
