EPISODE THIRTY-ONE of The Race to Social Justice Podcast series, produced with my colleague, Keva White, and just released, looks at false arrest and imprisonment in Free at Last. Convicted of a 1998 murder, 47-year-old Leon Benson was released from prison on 3/9/23, fully exonerated after 24 years. Now a college student and recording artist, Mr. Benson shares a riveting account of how his false arrest and incarceration (including many years in solitary) transformed, rather than embittered, him and formed the foundation for his new life as a free man.
