#120 Wrongful Conviction: False Confessions - Teina Pora
About this episode
Have you heard about New Zealand's Brendan Dassey?
Laura Nirider and Steve Drizin take us across the globe to New Zealand with a story that hits way too close to home: a sixteen-year-old boy confessed to a rape and murder he didn’t commit. His wrongful conviction allowed the real offender, a serial rapist, to assault dozens of other women -- while Teina Pora languished behind bars for 20 years.
