kids that ask and as a parent. i can come up with arguments and there's a lot of conflict within the game between the teams close to the conflict i would say. is made. close one of the children's children is good business the state of california makes $6000000000.00 a year of the prison complex just to get some $25.00 where. you don't care. anything. well. as i. say how are you doing. you know. i believe that we want to knock at the dentist and shauna not me appeal that we now have a child. and over. i don't get to pick some point that we have a little the making and that. he can carry can't get on. a diet i think what it

means how do you keep making money kept. copies. of the crime are not. big aha i had gushed that i probably greenlighted are one of the part of the masterminding it. out again and one person could get on you then another. population. committed even more our ages and i think john the 3rd and extremely broken and i think a lot of women here like her straight probably not that dumb kelpie and that sort of not just myself it should be the whole job the 1st. times where you just wanted to end it there's many many times people reach several years in which you know how come you don't wake up again. to let me die it hard to kind of power over yourself when you know you have no human contact so that anybody gets convicted of something

it's outrageous you're it automatically. away from that person at the top level because you don't want to be associated and there's a kind somebody to live the dream and not much and that's reporting. to look at the way and develop a copy and then let it go. by democracy when you're a nominee we have to wrap this up now we get it oh ok well thank you so much. thank you great. thank you good luck to you too. like many women on death row china for no longer has contact with her family. her brothers and sisters want nothing to do with her and even her own mother testified against her child. in 6 years she has not had one single visit from her

family. the only one who continues to write to her as her daughter jasmine. she was 17 years old when her mother was sentenced to the. events of her any sense this nightmare haunts her a day and night. after being harassed she had to change her name and moved out of state. you often think of her mother. all the time. there is no day that goes by i don't think about her. i wish i had a magical time machine that i can go back in time. and tire and put her in my closet. that none of this would happen that she wanted ended up. over there when she got framed for she did it. i was a kid that had

a pretty decent life. to nothing. to lower than nothing you were 17 at the time you're a student what how the stock. dropped out. my family turned their back on me. i lived in a tent in the middle of winter time just to survive. people emailing me and said my family should be in state. they said that it was my fault. that i shouldn't be here. i should be dead. i hated america. as still do. and i love my country but i hate the people. who sometimes you're. the phone call that would tell you that your mom might be

executed yes. but if so that i want to be there. i want her to be my face not the people around her that want her dead person that wants her there. in effect my dad wish me a full rest while i phone willing to take that risk. her mother's execution seems inevitable. unless she can finally have a new trial. in the united states very few women on death row managed to prove their innocence. lawyers can fight until the last minute but they are almost never able to overturn a decision. since 976 only 6 women have been released. we met one of them and nashville tennessee.

michelle byron spent 14 years on death row convicted for plotting the murder of her husband who beat her she was released in 2015 and died in 2019 she lived in a home for battered women. this was the only place that would accept this old woman who was poor and seriously ill. after breast cancer contracted in prison and several pneumonia as she. to double mastectomy and lived with her spirits fairy assistance and what they say yesterday everything. no cancer in the bones it's wonderful they had miscarried there for a while. like to go you know do some traveling you know everything. right now well the thing is about saving money but you know what you know. in this

place is help me do that. if it wasn't for this place. i would be living under a bridge. while you have had a lot of fires here you got your 1st cell phone yes but 1st very very self we got to be part of the 1st text and found calls that live by. now you're. teaching myself here. michelle byron receives a retirement pension of $600.00 a month and less than a year she'll be forced to leave the home and will be on her own she will have to start all over again with no compensation from the state. office after being wrongfully. i think i don't even get the money that you get when you leave prison i mean you can get ahead.

and you are i didn't think you were you know. so now you're on your own and so i don't know. i've come through too many obstacles. so let it get me down. michel byron went through is unconceivable. after 14 years on death row she was suddenly released just a few hours before being executed. convicted of killing her husband was not executed today the state supreme court wants more time to review the case. michelle byron learned about her release in a surprising way. and the little girl on this for was next door to me she said you're not going to be executed you're free. and

you know i've heard that so many. such turned on the news. and 16 to be executed in 8 hours her sentence was overturned. always claims her innocent was. own son also charged always insisted that he murdered his father. for 14 years he wrote her letters where he clearly admitted to the murder. i'm going to tell you. and it wasn't for the money it was for the. letters that were never taken into account by the court this evidence should have cleared michelle byron's name and allowing her to receive a large financial compensation. everybody was going to go for your new trial go see

a new trial but then i found out. at the last minute there wasn't going to be a trial. and that's where i couldn't understand why all of us. everybody turned against. to and what did you want to do that they said take the plea plate take the no contest take no contest and then a month later i figured out why they wanted me to take no count this because i had cancer i found out a month after i was finally released that i had 3rd stage breast cancer. and said that i have had it for years at the stage it was c.m. and they had taken a mammogram and prison so they knew i had it. what does it mean. for you to be no contest is to save their face so they don't get sick.

and they don't have to pay anything. the state should have paid for initial buyers medical expenses but by signing the no contest agreement she gave up her rights. to free in the eyes of the law she was not pardoned she remained guilty consequently she was not able to sue the state or obtain any compensation for her damages they took my life. taking my life to this day still. being taken away from me my pleasure has been taken away from me. my hopes have been taken away from me. i mean so much as even apology is. the wasted life and a deep sense of injustice. this is also what a judge at the mississippi supreme court thought. oliver diaz was one of the 7

judges who reexamined. proceedings. he believed from the start. and that she needed to be released. while i was on the court in 2003 the majority of the judges voted to keep her conviction in place. even though i had written an opinion urging the rest of my fellow judges to overturn that conviction because i thought there were problems and i thought it should be overturned she remained in prison and stayed there for i think another 11 years or so after. now retired has never forgotten michel. which remains his greatest. since then he's made a point of speaking in the media about the unfairness of the death penalty.

for the poor and. rich people generally don't go to. poor people do. i mean if you've got the resources if you're wealthy if you're rich if you've got your own private attorneys and you can hire investigators and you have witnesses you're not going to get a death row support people that can't fight back they don't have the resources if you don't have those resources the chances of you being convicted are dramatically at that point. the outbreak of the corona virus has become a black swan event for the global economy and is no longer whether the u.s. and other economies will slip into recession the question now is. long the recession will last it's going to get worse before it gets better.

it is almost impossible. once somebody is convicted once there's a conviction in place the state very rarely ever backs off i mean they they will proceed as though you are completely guilty from that point on the state will. the . terminator movie is not going to stop until it's over i've seen cases where prosecutors have. there's newly discovered d.n.a. in the case which will tell you who should have been convicted and prosecutors will fight that they don't want this d.n.a. tested because they already have a conviction in place. overturning that conviction technically today for the state of mississippi michelle byron is still technically she is guilty. but. in exchange the state. of the time that she needs to serve. means that she can sue

. money which. i think it's about $100000.00 a year for each year that you serve wrongfully sort of something around there. somewhere over a $1000000.00 probably sheets are over 10 years on death row. more than a $1000000.00 not counting medical expenses but how can you defend yourself when you're poor and about to be executed. you are able to verify the statements of this former supreme court judge virtually all women on death row are indeed poor public defender and speedy trial. in texas another case tension. woman accused of killing her 2

year old daughter. it was 40 when she was convinced that in 2008 the media barely covered the story the case of a poor drug addicted hispanic woman mother of 13 children generated no interests. her sister and her daughter in law refused to believe that melissa would have hurt mariah. to go through that it was an accident caused by a. we went to see the body before they brought her out i mean we had that in our head what happened was. they said she had trauma. to the head. and she had a broken arm. but that could have been from the. only one i have. a

buddy year and a half old. i don't believe it was melissa the did it. i don't. they were i mean there was a house full of children i mean small kids i mean i don't know i honestly don't believe it was her. in this i don't mean bone in her body i mean she never disciplined these kids i remember her yelling you know but i mean the kids. in the home. i would never know the numbers and i wish you would if. you could all these. they've been through a lot richard trying to hate him so. he tried to hang himself. using this because of what they want to do with. one of them. and imagine going from foster care to foster care. and somebody.

you need your mom. sister was a good mother. following the arrest of middle east solution the family was broken apart and the children were placed in homes all over texas. they have never seen their mother again. i don't know why my sister sitting on death row i do you know to society having 13 children. there just doesn't make any sense that i'll. have anybody that sat through that trial knows that my sister's child was the circus it was just awful. she stood no chance. she stood no chance we tried to even everywhere pro bono everybody 150 just started 100008 star or do we come up with that money you can sell everything and we still

don't have that money do you feel that her attorneys for the trial nope not at all . not at all. believes that the lawyers assigned to the case botched the trial. they never interrogated her family or any of her children. this is. this is where she lives. nor did they investigate an accident that mariah suffered 2 days before the tragedy. with. a fall down the stairs could have been the cause of her head trauma so from here they were moving and in between that time that accident happened so to me how i mean my sister's moving stuff so. whatever she had where will she have time to abuse. the younger boys are the ones i dated. i don't even. saw. it

was just coming from the smaller children m.r. i have fallen down the stairs. 13 stairs. i mean a baby i mean she had she had no. role or protect herself and she could have been hitting her head as she was falling down and then had her last. course they say she had to come to a concussion to the head. right there. which was witnessed by a. son's was never taken into account by the court even though they had told this to the police when their mother was arrested. despite the evidence that was never taken into account. state appeals have all failed. her last job is to appeal

to the u.s. supreme court. she's on gainesville death row slim chance of escaping execution. this is the 1st time she's been interviewed about this crime she has always maintained her innocence. and they're saying before. we welcome so tell me how long have you been. on death row i've been here. going on 9 years. on august 12th will be 9 years. do you ever think of something like this. you know. huge you feel that used to chance when the try to no no no no. because

they. i think the jury when the jury walked in and they saw. they saw these pictures of my daughter. but i'm sure they. they agreed with what the district attorney was you know trying to convince them that i was guilty so i think they came they came in already thinking that they were going there accused me and by me guilty of. benaud. murdering my daughter. and how many of your appeals have been the one who. would appeal live so that means my last appeal will go into the u.s. supreme court so that will be my last resort and if i get the night there then i get an execution date. you see here.

i wouldn't say i'm scared. i just feel for my children. now. not being able to. say goodbye to them is that. what's your biggest regret. not being the mother that i should have been to my children. being. a drug addict. putting my drugs before i children. i think that's my biggest regret. you know everybody. you know they they hear about that bro when they won

a you know put a tag on a scent and that were the worst of the worst and we're not you know some of us deadly lead apu lives out there but we're not the person that they're accusing us of being any if there is if there are some women on that road that are guilty of the charge. you know. something was going on with the muck and the world that led them to do what they did but. nobody can nobody should inject anybody because everybody sins every day nobody's perfect we all make mistakes a statement that could be her last words thank you thank you so what. is the next woman on the list of those to be executed in texas. when the.

public all right thank you only the supreme court can save her now. in arlington in south texas her family is also preparing for the worst. when they meet they remember happy times as if to ward off the misfortune times when melissa lucio danced to her brother's music. 6 that. that was one of melissa's favorite that was the one time voice is something on paper yeah. growing up which was kind of like my savior more when my mom didn't want to hold on to her. and be a little monster which is not sure where she ever flows mosharraf rose she

heard her say she was a little bit but. it wasn't enough. to be a murderer and you just. i'm just scared. to proceed. to. try. actually think about it because i can see how can i become you how can i. have a life. i have a letter that i'm using it i don't know and. i'm scared to send if you know. how kids know we don't see why i don't want to be counted because i'm scared to eat or. do you assume you're still sealed you're not open. up says she does no good google is here. where. there is still hope.

and settle down so. if she was a. new year she chose you go. what would go. nova students who go but i would go. for the families of those on death row. it's torture. and unbearable waits and often in comprehensible punishments whether these women are guilty or innocence .

humanity is on the edge of the precipice thanks to continuing destruction of the natural world. who just seem laid out a lot of bills also received at losing a larger one later if you really. want to take. less than nothing you can hold up. i think that all of the war. or the.

only dealing in the muslim world stands i am overall can sit around and stuff it and ship them so that disables the movement. of human activity has brought us to the brink of the world's 6th major extinction event and the people in this film just come take it anymore.
