The "Wrong Man" team explores the case of Kenneth Clair, a homeless black man who was convicted and sentenced to death for the brutal torture and murder of a live-in babysitter, 25-year-old Linda Rodgers, in Santa Ana, California, in 1984. Hours after the murder, a child who lived in the home told police that he had seen a white man kill the babysitter. The "Wrong Man" team examines all aspects of the prosecution's case against Clair, particularly a description of jewelry taken from the murder scene that Kenneth's girlfriend claimed she saw, and the alleged "confession" she elicited from him while being wiretapped by the police. When they discover that she had sustained a severe head injury in an accident shortly before the murder, they consult with a neuropsychologist and learn that her injury would have affected her memory and cognitive abilities and may have made her susceptible to coaching. How reliable was the confession that convicted Kenneth Clair? |
