77 // Death By Incarceration / Bonus Content / Ralph Trent Stokes - Part 2

Original air date March 18, 2022 Right out of the gate, Spencer and LIsa are joined by renowned journalist, podcaster ,and friend of the program, Maggie Freleng. Maggie discusses her work on Ralph's case through her Unjust and Unsolved Podcast and beyond. Ralph checks in to tell more of his story, and Spencer and Lisa continue to break down the events of March 11, 1982 and what happened leading up to Ralph's trial ......... When Smokin’ Joe’s Corner in Philadelphia was robbed on March 11, 1982, resulting in the brutal murder of three people, police arrested 19 year-old Ralph Trent Stokes, a former cook at Smokin’ Joe’s for the crime.  Notoriously corrupt prosecutor, Assistant District Attorney Roger King - a man who has been featured extensively on this podcast - convinced a jury that Ralph Should get the death penalty. Six months later, Ralph was sent to live in a prison cell no larger than a bathroom, where he has remained ever since, most of those years in solitary confinement. Fast forward to 2004 and, in an investigative file that was previously undisclosed, it was discovered that King had lied to the jury about forensically tested evidence. Witnesses that testified against Ralph were coerced and incentivized, his alibi witnesses were disregarded and an innocent man has sat on death row for 40 years.  Be sure and get caught up with Episode 1 and subscribe so you get the episodes as they are released. Together, we are committed to righting this terrible injustice and seeing Ralph Trent Stokes walk free.
