An extraordinary human story is drawing national attention — the relationship between a murder victim’s son and the man who spent years behind bars for a crime he did not commit.
Jay Young, whose father was killed, sat down with reporter Barbara Bradley Hagerty to speak with NPR’s Ailsa Chang about his connection with Benjamin Spencer, the man who was wrongfully convicted of murdering Young’s father.
The conversation explores how Young and Spencer came to know one another, and what that relationship means for both of them in the wake of a profound miscarriage of justice.
