On March 16, 2000, two police officers were shot in one of Atlanta’s oldest neighborhoods. One officer died and the other claimed the shooter was Jamil Abdullah Al-Amin, the leader of a local mosque. Once known as H. Rap Brown, a charismatic leader of the Black Power Movement, and an honorary officer in the Black Panther Party, Al-Amin was convicted and sentenced to life in prison. But was Al-Amin truly guilty? Or was it payback for decades of work against the establishment?

In April 1993, chaos erupted inside Ohio’s Lucasville prison. Nine prisoners and one guard never made it out alive. And when it was over, the state said Keith LaMar was responsible. He’s been on death row ever since, but insists the truth is more complicated. This September 1st, Truer Crime tells his story in a four-part series. Here’s your first listen.
