20 Years In Solitary Confinement: Innocent On Death Row | Witness | US Crime & Prison HD Documentary
In 2014, filmmaker Jessica Villerius met death row inmate, Clinton Young, who had been convicted of a double homicide and became convinced of his innocence. Her documentary ‘Innocent on Death Row’ exposed the weakness of the whole case, proving the shootings could not possibly have taken place the way the prosecutor alleged. These and other new facts, including serious misconduct by the prosecution, led to Young’s execution being halted just 8 days before it was due to take place. He is granted a new trial and freed on given bail to await his new trial.
Clinton was 19 when he was imprisoned. He is now 38. After almost 20 years of solitary confinement, how do you adapt to life outside? In addition, the strict conditions of his bail prevent him from living in the same state as his family and even going to the supermarket across the road from his house. He’s terrified of making the slightest mistake and being sent back to prison. He’s free but not free.
This film was first released in 2022.

Texas “law of parties” law would make them all guilty.
He is still guilty of murder! Just not the one he was on deathrow for!

Yeah I agree. Even though I think Page probably was the actual shooter, Young is by no means 100 percent innocent!

@@bobnichols3233 That’s not how the system works! He’s out awaiting a new trial due to the illegal behaviors of a prosecutor, who was unethical and conducted himself in unlawful activities.
You have to do right now, people work hard for you
"Imagine two Central African women fighting to free an African American from prison. Is it a manifestation of racial solidarity?
You know after watching that video documentary you guys have (documentary on japans prison) makes me so grateful to live in the USA. We don’t always get it right, but at least you’re not made to confess or else. At least here we are entitled to an attorney
Watching this from Canada where we don’t have the death penalty. The Americans kill innocent people.
God be with you Clinton 🙏
Glad bro free hopefully 🙏🏿 he makes something out his second chance at life ..‼️‼️‼️
So a pos lawyer said he is innocent...😆...I'd say the scumbag lawyer may have a ulterior motive 😂...just a guess mind you🤣
It's hard to believe we have some much corrupt and heartless people in the justice system. I have had my dealings with being treated poorly by police. Falsely accused. It's easy to get into trouble but so hard to prove your innocence

the story started crumbing when Page open his mouth 😮… i can’t ignore the smile on his face it’s almost like he is saying “catch me if you can “ i used to be a first believer of death row but after this story i realised that innocent people can be convicted to death and that can’t be reversed 😢
