Racially Motivated Sentencing Almost Took This Man's Life | Innocent Behind Bars | Derrick Jamison

Derrick Jamison was born and raised in Cincinnati, Oho. He had learning difficulties and a good heart but was led astray in a bad neighbourhood, which resulted in an early life of felony theft. In August 1984, two men robbed a bar and assaulted the bartender, who later died in hospital from his injuries. Derrick was identified by his alleged accomplice, convicted for murder and sentenced to death. He languished on death row, desperate to prove his innocence as he faced execution six times.
