On April 3rd, 2003, three men robbed a Houston check cashing store shooting and killing

the clerk, Alfredia Jones, as well as the responding officer Charles Clark.

An eyewitness saw the men flee to a local housing project.

Two of the men, the Sean Glaspian, Elijah Joubert, were soon identified and arrested, but

they protected the third man by pointing the finger at Dwayne Brown.

The Sean Glaspian cut a deal for his testimony against Dwayne, and a second eyewitness was coerced

into supporting that testimony, but Dwayne was at his girlfriend Erica Docker's apartment

at the time of the crime.

He had called her at her workplace on the apartment's landline and Erica corroborated

that story.

The prosecutors soon charged Erica Docker with perjury for her grand jury testimony, sending

her to jail for four months away from her kids and causing her to eventually start telling

the story that he wanted to hear.

With no more alibi witnesses and no phone records presented a trial to corroborate his

story, Dwayne, a man they knew was innocent, was sent to death row.

This is Ronanville Conviction with Jason Flamme.

Welcome back to Ronanville Conviction with Jason Flamme.

If you're about to hear the story of Dwayne Brown, this case involves an innocent man sentenced

to death, a district attorney who knew he was innocent before he prosecuted him, and

witnesses that were coerced as too light of a term with us today to tell the story is

the man who is primarily responsible for getting him out.
