On November 5, 1986, Scott McLean, the son of the mayor of Croswell, Michigan, was fatally shot in the parking lot of St. Clair County Community College.

A fingerprint was pulled from the box of shells at the scene. Some students described the potential getaway cars and red or tan sedan, but no one had gotten a good look at the shooter.

One student, Renny Gobein, intent on involving himself, submitted to hypnotherapy in order to recall the license plate number, but it didn't return any results.

Eventually, the victims of alleged fiancé, Crystal Merrill, pointed authorities in the direction of her ex, Temujin Kensu.

Even though the fingerprints didn't match, incredible alibi witnesses placed Temujin over 400 miles away, authorities put his photo in a very suggestive lineup.

And again, Renny Gobein came to aid investigators with an identification.

Temujin's rock solid alibi in the lack of any physical evidence connecting him to the crime was overcome by Renny Gobein's dubious identification and a character assassination campaign that should have been inadmissible.

The jury was made to believe that Temujin was a satanic, sex-crazed ninja assassin capable of mind control.

And although deeply in debt, he was somehow still able to arrange an undocumented private round trip flight to commit a murderer allegedly over a woman who he no longer cared to be within 400 miles of.

The prosecutor, Robert Klieland, is now a federal judge. Temujin is still in prison and the current attorney general, Dana Nessel, who was elected in part to start a conviction integrity unit, refuses to end this well-recognized injustice.

This is wrongful conviction.

Welcome back to wrongful conviction. I gotta say I'm flabbergasted at what we're about to do today. It's just nuts.

I mean, this case, the case of Temujin Kenzu, is like a masterclass in the failings of our criminal legal system.

And our social system is well by the way, but the criminal legal system is on full display in all of its terrors.

And this particular case is in Michigan, but to be fair, it could have been in any state.

But here to help us tell this story is the man who's been working his butt off to get Mr. Kenzu out of prison. And I'm talking, of course, about Emron Sayed, who is the co-director of the Michigan Innocence Clinic and a professor at Michigan Law School.

Emron, thanks so much for being here with us today.

Of course, thank you for having me.

And now I am, we are honored to be joined from Michigan Prison by Temujin Kenzu. Temujin, thanks for calling in.

Thank you, Jason. Thank you to all the listeners out there, too.

Temujin, you've been in prison since before. Probably a lot of our listeners are even born. And it pains me to say that. It's really insane.

But when they hear about the maniacal developments in this case, which should have had nothing to do with you, because you were over 400 miles away at the time of the murder and provably so.
