Ep 133: Anatomy of a Wrongful Conviction (Lydell Grant)

In December 2010, 28-year-old Aaron Scheerhoorn was murdered in a bar parking lot in Houston, Texas. Investigators quickly zeroed in on a suspect - 33-year-old Lydell Grant. But nearly 10 years later, even after all parties agree that he’s innocent, why has Lydell still not been exonerated?
