Episode 6-Eric Anderson
Manage episode 503963581 series 3676979
In this gripping episode of Wrongfully Yours, Eric Anderson shares the shocking story of how he became entangled in a wrongful conviction — all after being the victim of a shooting.
As a 20-year-old college student pursuing his dreams in computer engineering, Eric was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time when he was struck by a stray bullet at a Detroit restaurant. But instead of being treated as a victim, Eric was arrested 10 days later and accused of committing an armed robbery — one that occurred miles away from where he was shot.
Eric walks us through the disbelief, confusion, and injustice that followed: from being interrogated without a lawyer, to taking a polygraph test he was told he “failed,” to being misidentified based on a Facebook photo by someone he didn’t even know personally. Despite medical records, geographic inconsistencies, and glaring flaws in witness accounts, Eric was charged and held in jail.
