#281 Maggie Freleng with Troy Burner

In the evening of April 21, 1990, two masked gunmen shot and killed 27 year old Michael Wilson while he was walking with a friend on a Washington D.C. street. The Wilson murder went unsolved for years until police offered deals to jailhouse informants which included reduced jail time, cash payments and free housing in exchange for their testimony in over 3 dozen cases that included the Michael Wilson case. The informants implicated Troy Burner and three other men at the Wilson shooting. Despite the informants’ inconsistent and double hearsay testimony, Burner and the other three men were tried and convicted of first degree murder with Burner receiving 30 years to life. Maggie speaks to Troy Burner, his wife, Cherie, and his attorney, Frances Walters.
