Asking for clemency as an innocent man P2 - Tariq Maqbool
The story of Tariq Maqbool is one that had not been told in over 20 years. A man who was found guilty of a brutal double homicide in 2002—of Joong Ahn, 45, and his nephew, Mun Ahn, 28—on the night of November 1. On April 27, 2005, he was found guilty and sentenced to life without the possibility of parole.During his time of incarceration, he decided to keep to himself and would not allow anyone to tell his story or take advantage of his situation for the sake of 'entertainment.' That’s why, when I reached out to him, I was honoured that he agreed to allow me the opportunity to help tell his story.Since then, many people have started taking notice of his story and taking an interest in the case. A couple of months ago, I received an email from a professor at a university who told me that some of her students would be looking at his case this semester, working out if there was a way in which they might be able to help him.A couple of weeks ago those students stood in front of a panel of experts in the fight for clemency to give their oral arguments for Tariqs freedom.Join the One Minute Remaining Jury via Appl + HERE and get OMR early and ad free for as little as $1.69 a week!Become a Jury member on Patreon and find us on Facebook here.

Back out again and with new focus - Jason Vukovich
It’s fair to say that with the story of Jason Vukovich — The Alaskan Avenger — we’ve been on quite the rollercoaster ride.From his origin story to his arrest and incarceration, it’s undoubtedly a story that has sparked division. A story met with disapproval, admiration, and — in some respects — astonishment. However you look at it, there’s no denying that Jason’s story is unlike many, if any.We followed Jason as he fought for parole from a sentence of over 20 years for his attacks on three registered sex offenders. We were there when his sister received word of his failed attempt at parole, with authorities stating he’d have to wait five more years to go home.Then, only weeks later, came more news — he had won an appeal. And yet, his release continued to be delayed, pushed back time and time again… until he finally walked free.When I spoke to Jason upon his release, he told me he was focused on moving forward with his life and had begun building an online presence to connect with those who had followed his story. But it would be that very online presence that saw him put behind bars once again — following claims of a parole violation.Word quickly spread: some believed it meant he’d have to serve out the remainder of his sentence, while others suggested it was merely a 10-day “cool-down” period.After more than two weeks, Jason was again released — this time under stricter conditions — as he regained his focus and returned to the free world.And it’s here that I find him now, as we sit down to discuss exactly what happened… and what’s next for the man they call The Alaskan Avenger.You can find Jason on all social channels by searching The Alaskan Avenger.

Introducing Wanted - Escaping Thai Prison
With the recent influx of new listeners, I wanted to take this opportunity to introduce you to another one of my shows that I’m extremely proud of — WANTED. It’s a show where I interview men and women who are, or have been, wanted by authorities from around the world.Today, I bring you Part 1 of my chat with David McMillan.David McMillan has lived a life that is almost unbelievable — it’s like something straight out of a Hollywood crime thriller.Born in the UK to Australian parents, David travelled back and forth between the two countries a few times until, at the age of 10, his parents divorced. He, his sister, and his mother then made the permanent move to Melbourne.David was always different as a kid. He was expelled from school for trying to make a batch of LSD — perhaps a sign of things to come.At eighteen, David got a job at a city cinema where, by chance, he met some retired safe crackers — men who were looking to invest their money into the drug business. With no one else able to source it for them, David jumped in headfirst, changing the course of his entire life.He went on to make millions of dollars before an Australian task force swooped in, leading to him spending 10 years in maximum security prison in Victoria. Once released, David decided he was done with Australia and left for the UK — with a stopover in Thailand. It was a decision that would see him arrested again, this time facing the death penalty.Just two weeks before he was due to be executed by firing squad, David did something no other Westerner had ever achieved — he escaped.Get a copy of David's book hereJoin the One Minute Remaining Jury via Appl + HERE and get OMR early and ad free for as little as $1.69 a week!Become a Jury member on Patreon and find us on Facebook here.

A leopard never changes it's spots - Dorice Moore
Today I’m checking in with the OG, Dorice Moore.I think by now everyone is well and truly across the story of Dorice and Abraham, so there’s no need for me to revisit the details of her case. But in a nutshell, she was convicted of the murder of lottery winner Abraham Lee Shakespeare—a crime she has always maintained she is innocent of.Dorice and I had a catch-up earlier this year. She’s still awaiting the outcome of her evidentiary hearing, based on newly discovered evidence—or at least, evidence she says she wasn’t given access to during her original trial. So, nothing has changed there. However, something else has been brewing in the background… and it’s suddenly come to a head.As one of the most televised cases I have covered in OMR it wouldn't be long before the producers came knocking again but this time Dorice was hopeful it might be different, maybe this time they'd hear her out.
