John Merritt has been behind bars for longer than I’ve been alive. Like many of the men and women we speak to, John’s early life was marked by run-ins with the law—mostly for petty, non-violent offences.He became trapped in a cycle, moving in and out of the system. One day everything took an even darker turn while he was serving a sentence for burglary.A visit from a sheriff's investigator would change the course of his life forever, setting him on an unexpected and terrifying path toward the death penalty for a crime, he says, he didn't commit.Ultimately John would have to make a decision, a life of incarceration or the electric chair.One Minute Remaining LIVE in Melbourne get your tix now Join the One Minute Remaining Jury via Appl + HERE and get OMR early and ad free for as little as $1.69 a week!Become a Jury member on Patreon and find us on Facebook here.
