This dramatic true crime documentary series follows the incredible case of Keith Doolin and the race against the clock to save him from death row.
Interviews with protagonists and witnesses reveal the extraordinary circumstances around Keith's conviction - how a corrupt lawyer and a shockingly short investigation sabotaged his chance of justice.
But as Keith's execution date gets closer, his fortunes could change.
A respected attorney has written a statement declaring that a former client, who killed herself in 2001, has given information that could exonerate Keith.
The problem? Even though she's dead, he's still bound by attorney-client privilege.
Can Keith's team convince the court to uncover this new evidence in time to save his life?
Tracking a Serial Killer
In June 1996, Keith Doolin was found guilty of two murders. He has claimed his innocence ever since.
But if he truly is innocent, then how did he end up in death row?
While following Donna's (Keith's mother) relentless fight to prove her son's wrongful conviction, this episode unveils the origins of his arrest.
Beyond Reasonable Doubt
"I don't know if Keith is guilty or innocent, I wasn't there, but I know he didn't have a fair shot" says Keith's childhood friend.
A speedy trial, a lawyer gambling away the defence fund, some crucial leads ignored... with the help of Keith's mother, Keith's defence investigator at the time of the crime, and Keith's current defence, this episode tries to understand what went wrong in the process.
From Death to Hope
Once Keith was sentenced death and locked in San Quentin Prison, then his defence investigation really started.
This episode takes a look at what was found by the different appellate attorneys during those last two decades.
Juror misconduct, witnesses unheard, DNA not tested. Many of their discoveries raise compelling questions.
The Secret of Josephina Saldana
Recently, Keith's current attorneys discovered that a key witness in the trial, who was later convicted of murder, revealed crucial information to her lawyer that further points to Doolin's innocence before committing suicide.
Because of attorney-client privilege, her lawyer can't release the information unless a court compels him to do it.
Doolin's attorneys asked the Federal Court to compel him to release the information that could save their client.
Will the court allow this exonerating information to be unveiled?
