A couple of years back, I got an email from a defense lawyer who wanted me to write about his client.
voice-verified
The client, David Wood, was on death row in Texas.
voice-verified
Had been there for more than 30 years.
voice-verified
The lawyer was writing because David Wood had lost all of his appeals.
voice-verified
He was set to be executed.
voice-verified
The lawyer's plan to stop the execution was to try and prove something that nobody had successfully done in three decades, that one of Texas' most notorious serial killers was actually innocent.
voice-verified
It wasn't that the lawyers didn't have a case to make.
voice-verified
I know two people fabricated testimony to get a guy executed.
voice-verified
It's just that they had so little time to make it.
