Last night, CNN premiered its new six episode documentary series “Death Row Stories.” Executive produced by Alex Gibney and Robert Redford and narrated by Susan Sarandon, each episode chronicles the events of a death row case and uncovers shortcomings of the nation’s justice system.
The first episode highlighted the case of Edward Lee Elmore, who spent more than half of his life in prison before he was freed in 2012 after his legal team uncovered information suggesting that evidence was planted or hidden from defense attorneys at trial.
The show airs Sundays on CNN at 9:00 p.m. (EST)
