Crosley Green Comes Home | Full Episode

The emotional homecoming of a man imprisoned for nearly 32 years. A judge ruled he was wrongfully convicted of murder, but is he home for good? Questions linger about the witness who blamed him. "48 Hours" correspondent Erin Moriarty has the latest on the case she's covered for more than two decades. Watch more full episodes of "48 Hours" on Pluto TV.
"I can’t sleep at night because of this case. After decades of investigation it has become apparent that Crosley Green did not get a fair trial. He was convicted of shooting a man in a deserted orange grove, but the case against him is wildly flawed. I am committed to report on Crosley’s story for as long as it takes. Through it all, Crosley is a man of incredible patience and grace." - Erin Moriarty on why the story is important.

Why would she be suspected of being a liar??” is so very typical of the mindset in small towns down here. Because someone’s from a supposedly similar social standing as someone who considers themself above others, well by golly it’s inconceivable that they could do anything bad, and why should they even go through the trauma and stress of being LOOKED AT? 🙄 makes me absolutely nauseous.

Most people have absolutely no idea how easy it is to be wrongly accused & convicted. And few people realize the massive discrepancy in funding for prosecutors vs public defenders. There are also a lot of unscrupulous prosecutors whose primary concern is “winning” & putting someone away. Those are elected positions & many want to appear “tough on crime” so they simply want to close the case. The actual guilt of the accused is inconsequential. Don’t get me wrong, there are plenty of dirtbags in prison who are guilty but few realize there are innocent people rotting away. And another huge issue is how many people are MASSIVELY overcharged & this is often based on race. It’s frustrating people are so blind to the systemic injustice.

There was one guy who was innocent, and got cancer during his time in prison. When they finally released him, he was given $20 and a gift card.
