From the video description:
How does an innocent man get executed in America today? In Missouri, it might be easier than you think.
For a state that incarcerates its population at a higher rate than most countries on earth the system has been rigged to make sure these convictions remain final no matter what comes to light.
At the centre of it all: Marcellus Williams. Even though DNA evidence was discovered seven years ago that could have exonerated him, the state has refused to even allow an evidentiary hearing to present this.
Marcellus Williams’ execution date is currently set for September 24th, 2024.

Of course it’s Missouri. The same state that tried to throw hacking charges at a guy for pressing f12.
I saw this video, and it’s heartbreaking… I have no idea how an entire group of people can live with themselves for doing everything they can to stop an innocent person from not just going free and having them executed on top of it all.
I will be following closely and hope they succeed in finding a way to have him released. It will be disgusting if this is allowed.
