Friend, after a cycle of injustice spanning 24 years, six trials, and four death sentences… Curtis Flowers is free.
The results of investigative journalism can be enormously consequential. For Curtis Flowers, it is the difference between death row and freedom. Flowers' lawyer, Rob McDuff, had this to say when we talked with him in our latest episode:
"The dismissal of the charges today is the result, in part, of the work that you all have done with In the Dark, because of the evidence you found during your very, very detailed investigation. And it really raised the profile of the injustice in this case. It helped to provide the conditions for where we are today."
Thank you for following our work and for giving generously, whatever that means to you. Your gift today is much needed and appreciated by our team.
