Hi, guys. Welcome to Legally Brunette. I'll be your host today, Emily Simpson, with...

Shane.

Normally, we get very excited about doing episodes on true crime and legal things and breaking it all down for all of you guys.

But today, this is a very, very special episode, very near and dear to

my heart. We have two special guests today, and we're actually recording from the IHeart

studio here in L.A. So we have Terrell Swift. I don't know if you guys out there that are listening

are big Housewife fans, but Terrell has been on an episode of Housewise with me. It was a few years ago,

but we actually had to sit down and we had a great conversation just talking about

how Terrell was wrongfully accused, spent time in prison 10 years, right, Terrell?

15. 15 years. And then kind of where he's at now. Just for our listeners that don't know a lot about your background, Terrell, I'm just going to read a little bit and then, you know, you add whatever you would like to.

So Terrell Swift was arrested in 1995 at just 17 years old in connection to the 1994 rape and murder of Nina Glover in Chicago.

His arrest came after another teenager, gave a statement

to police and named several individuals, including Terrell. Despite no physical evidence linking

any of them to the crime and even early DNA testing, excluding them, all of the boys, including

Terrell, ended up signing confessions after police interrogations.

Those confessions became the central evidence used to convict them.

Years later, more advanced DNA testing identified a different perpetrator leading to Terrell's conviction being vacated in 2011 after he had spent 15 years in prison

for a crime he did not commit.

Before we get into that, let me just introduce Dave Thomas is here with us as well.

I met Dave not too long ago.
