This is just a quick update about Ledell Lee's case Statement from AG Leslie Rutledge: "The courts consistently rejected Ledell Lee's frivolous claims because the evidence demonstrated beyond any shadow of a doubt that he murdered Debra Reese by beating her to death inside her home with a tire thumper. After 20 years, I am prayerful that Debra's family has had closure following his lawful execution in 2017."    Reaction from Governor Asa Hutchinson: CLICK HERE   Article featuring friend of the show, Furonda Brasfield: CLICK HERE   Listen to Episode 1 - An Innocent Man
