Jamie Snow: A Story Recanted
Listen now
Description
On Easter Sunday, 1991, a gas station in Bloomington, Illinois would be robbed at gunpoint. Tragically, Billy Little, the attendant working that night, would be killed - shot to death for the money in his cash register. Investigators collected evidence from the crime scene including fingerprints, shoe prints and even a DNA sample, but they struggled for years to nail down who the armed robber was. It wasn’t until 8 years later that a witness would pick out a man named Jamie Snow from a lineup. Jamie was a person the police had their eye on from the beginning, but the witness had previously failed to pick him out from photos and lineups. Now that this witness pointed at Jamie Snow, the police moved in on an arrest.  However, Jamie denied robbing the gas station and killing the attendant. He said he was at home eating dinner with his children at the time of the crime. Despite Jamie having an alibi and passing a polygraph test, the police found no evidence to connect him to the crime scene and an eye witness that only pointed at Jamie 8 years later, Jamie Snow would be tried and convicted. He has been in prison for over 24 years now for a crime he says he did not commit - and once you hear the details of the investigation and trial, you’ll wonder how this all happened.  Sources: http://Snowfiles.net  http://www.Freejamiesnow.com https://caselaw.findlaw.com/court/us-7th-circuit/1887037.html https://truecrimedaily.com/2016/10/13/jamie-snow-conviction-exoneration-project-brings-new-details-in-old-murder-case/ Support the show Follow me here: ► YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@SerialNapper/ ► Twitter - https://twitter.com/serial_napper ► Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/serialnappernik/ ► Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/SerialNapper/ ► TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@serialnappernik  Join the Serial Society true crime Facebook group:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/serialnapperpatron Our Sponsors: * Check out True Crime Feed : https://thetruecrimefeed.com/ Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
