One Minute Remaining – Stories from the inmates — True Crime
One Minute Remaining – Stories from the inmates

One Minute Remaining is a true crime and prison podcast featuring first-hand stories from inmates serving lengthy sentences inside prisons across the United States. From murder and attempted murder to robbery, arson and claims of wrongful conviction, these are criminal cases told from behind prison walls.

Hosted by Jack Laurence, One Minute Remaining gives prisoners the opportunity to tell their stories in their own words. We examine the crimes, the evidence and the cases that led to their incarceration, while hearing directly from the people serving the sentences.

Some maintain their innocence. Others admit exactly what they did. Some are serving life sentences or decades behind bars. The purpose isn’t to prove them innocent or guilty — it’s to hear their account, examine the case against them, and let you decide what you think.

From murder cases and disputed convictions to extraordinary stories from inside the American prison system, One Minute Remaining takes listeners beyond the headlines and into cases they may never otherwise have heard.

Hosted by Australian podcaster Jack Laurence.

The 2025 Q&A with Jack and Michael Leonard P1 Apr 21, 2025

Show notes

Well, it’s that time again!

It’s been a while since we opened up the floor for a Q&A, but recently Jack posted in the One Minute Remaining private Facebook group asking for your questions for him—and everyone’s favourite attorney at law, Michael Leonard. And wow, did you deliver!

You sent in so many fantastic questions that we’ve had to split this into two parts. Some of them really hit hard, like:

🔹 “If you could only free one person, who would it be?”

🔹 “Has there been any inmate you wished you’d never contacted?”

This is shaping up to be one hell of an episode!

So get ready to hear your question answered—and to find out if you’re the lucky winner of a year-long Patreon subscription and a double pass to the OMR Live show when it hits a city near you!

What the attorney thinks - Susan Brown Apr 16, 2025

Show notes

We’ve just wrapped up the story of Susan Brown—a woman serving life without the possibility of parole for the murder of her former partner, a crime she has always claimed was an act of self-defence.

So, what does The Voice of Reason think? Would he have handled the case differently? Does he believe there were issues with how it was investigated and prosecuted?

Let’s find out, as Michael Leonard from Leonard Trial Lawyers in Chicago, Illinois weighs in on the case and Susan’s claims of self-defence.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"The story of how I got here is deeply painful. Years ago I was married to a man who was mercilessly verbally and mentally abusive to me and my children. I wanted to press through the anguish to keep our family together, but then his behavior escalated. I had no choice but to leave to protect our child.

A year later, I had moved on and was 30 weeks pregnant with another man's child. My estranged husband was enraged and, in a volatile verbal exchange, stabbed me in my stomach. He then raped me. I fought back to defend myself. In a blur, I ended up in the hospital, with my child devastatingly born prematurely. I then learned that, while it was never my intention, my ex-husband died."

These are the words of Susan Brown a lady serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole for what she says was self defense.

This is her story, as told by here from prison in Michigan.
