Truth
Life and Death Row Series 2
Episode 3 of 4
Life and Death Row tells the story of
capital punishment through the eyes of young people whose lives have
been shaped by it. With unprecedented access inside prison walls, it
discovers what it's like to live with the threat of the death chamber,
as well as hearing from victims and their families, and the family of
those on death row - some praying for execution, some hoping for a
reprieve. Each episode focuses on different aspects of the system -
execution, punishment and the complex nature of 'truth'.
In January 2014, Waynesville, Ohio,
18-year-old Justin Back is brutally murdered in his own home. Two of his
19-year-old friends, Austin Myers and Timothy Mosley, are arrested and
charged with his murder. However both give very different versions of
events, begging the question, who is telling the truth?
With prosecutors seeking the death
penalty for the crime, what will each one do to save themselves from the
ultimate punishment? With access to the families of all three boys, the
devastating nature of this gruesome crime and it's repercussions are
revealed. It's one crime but will there be two different outcomes?
