Lester Holt

Well, sorry.

Interesting way to describe it.

I mean, I don't mean it like that.

I mean, they were just very good.

No, no.

It's just given why we're here.

I mean, they were very delicious.

What do you say to anyone who feels like you're blaming everybody but yourself?

I'm not blaming everybody but myself.

I'm filling in the holes that nobody cared to listen to.

I just want the truth out there.

That's all I want.

Hundreds of miles south in a Texas prison, Allison's ex-husband Delbert is also proclaiming his innocence.

And after two decades, he's ready to reveal the person he says is responsible for the fire that killed Patricia Lee.

Charged with solicitation of murder, Allison Salinas was facing a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison if convicted.

But the state offered a deal, plead guilty in exchange for a lighter sentence.

After consulting with her public defender, she took it and is serving a 16-year prison term.

You accepted a plea deal.

Because I was told I had to, yes.

What was said to you?
