#127 Wrongful Conviction: False Confessions - Huwe Burton

About this episode

What could make someone confess to the murder of their own mother?

Laura Nirider and Steve Drizin take us to The Bronx in 1989. Huwe Burton was sixteen years old and charged with the murder of his own mother. Even as Huwe was bulldozed into a false confession, the real killer was living in the apartment just one floor below.
