Heller, Bunting, Feeney, and Wilson discuss the challenges they faced, what eventually led to a break in their case, and reflect on the day Wilson was eventually exonerated, Jan. 21, 2020.

Greenberg Traurig represented Wilson in his fight for innocence alongside the non-profit public interest law firm Phillips Black.
