episode description

Herman Lindsey experienced a difficult upbringing and turned to committing petty crimes with his cousin, Ronnie LoRay to get by. Unfortunately, this relation would eventually be his downfall. In April 1994 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, two men robbed the Big Dollar pawn shop and killed the shop clerk in the process; Ronnie LoRay was a prime suspect. Herman was questioned about the crime, but it wasn’t until twelve years later in 2006 that the police arrested Herman as Ronnie’s accomplice. The evidence was circumstantial, and Ronnie LoRay denied Herman’s involvement, but the jury found Herman guilty and sentenced him to death. He spent three years on Florida’s death row before his public defender was able to file an appeal and plead Herman’s case before the Justices of the Florida Supreme court. Herman was finally released from prison and was able to return to his family.
