The Case of Marvin Haynes [The Film] [33min] [CC]
Part three's narrative ([link removed]) follows a tortuous path created decades ago by county attorneys, overly ambitious, racist cops, faulty eyewitness identification procedures, pressure from those in power — including Black community leaders — to find the shooter quickly, and a series of coerced teenage witnesses. That path ends at Minnesota Correctional Facility-Stillwater, where Marvin Haynes and so many men like him sit behind bars.

Four of those teenage witnesses have since recanted their testimonies, providing statements to the Great North Innocence Project describing how they were coerced by police into going along with the prosecution. We also visited the state prison where one of the teens, Isiah Harper, who is now an adult, is incarcerated. In our film ([link removed]) , watch Harper share his story ([link removed]) of being threatened by Minneapolis Police as a 14-year-old, compelling him to lie about Marvin's involvement in the murder.

As the case of Marvin Haynes starts to gain more media attention, family and supporters held a press conference demanding he be freed from prison. On March 16, 2023, Haynes’ family and advocates gathered in the atrium of the Hennepin County Government Center in downtown Minneapolis and addressed the media. Watch an edited video ([link removed]) from the presser below and read the full article here ([link removed]) .
