    Voiceless Behind Bars is back for an all-new season, and we’re kicking things off with a powerful episode featuring James Bitz, a man fighting to prove his innocence after being wrongfully convicted in Oregon.

    In this episode, host Sarah DeArmond sits down with James to discuss the shocking inconsistencies in his case, the new evidence that could exonerate him, and the systemic issues that led to his conviction. From DNA evidence that excludes him to the victim’s own testimony declaring his innocence, James Bitz’s case is a chilling reminder of how the justice system can fail the people it’s meant to protect. Sarah also speaks with advocates fighting for Bitz’s release, including Michelle Jacquet, who is leading efforts to petition for a commutation of his sentence.
