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.

Freedom 27 years in the making - Damian Skinner Jan 03, 2024

Show notes

Damian Skinner was wrongfully convicted of murder when he was just 18 years old in 1997. Now after almost 27 years he will be walking the streets a free man. His parole was recently granted by the board and given the sign off by the Governor. Its been decades since Damian has been a free man and a lot has changed in those years.

Damian will be coming out free but still on parole. He hasn't been exonerated of the crime he was convicted of.. yet! so he will be under strict supervision for the first two years of his freedom. One wrong move could see him sent straight back to prison! it's not going to be easy but he's ready.

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

Damian Skinner grew up in California's infamous streets of Compton. A place where gang violence is everywhere. The Bloods and the Crips are bitter rivals and often settle disputes with blood shed.

Damian had nothing to do with the gangs growing up, his only focus as a young teenager was sport. He had dreams of making it big in the world of baseball, he worked hard at school on his grades and his game.

His father was a minister in a local church and did his best to shield his children from the gangs and the violence outside. Unfortunately Damian's older brother would take a different path to Damian and found his way into the Crips and would not only join the notorious gang but also make a name for himself as someone who was willing to do what needed to be done.

In 1996 Damian's life would change as a SWAT team arrives at his home to arrest him for murder, a murder he believes could have been carried out by his own brother.

Show notes

Today I sit down with former Marine gunnery Sgt, now Private Investigator, Mr. JD Brooks.

Mr. Brooks was employed by the Cain family some time a go to look into the boys case. He has dived deeper into it than most, having interviewed all involved including Chris Stano, Mark Harper, countless witnesses as well as jurors from the trial. After the money for his work ran out Mr. Brooks was so disturbed by what he found that he decided he wanted to continue helping the Cain boys for free.

On April 7, 2001 the lives of many would change forever. One man would lose his life, three young boys would be charged with murder and many families would be irreversible changed.

This is story of Jeremey Cain, Zachary Cain and Mark Harper. Three teenage boys that say the events of that day were self defense against a man with a piece of timber and plenty of vile threats. Others would claim it was a savage beating carried out with baseball bats on an unarmed man.

Jimmy Hill in his 40's would confront the boys after Mark Harper had been having issues with his step son. what followed was an altercation that quickly got out of control.

All three boys would be sentenced to 35 years for murder with Mark Harper being released after serving just three.

Killer Doctors P2 - Bruce Sackman Dec 13, 2023

Show notes

Recently I have been watching the series Dr Death on the streaming service Stan here in Australia. It's a true crime series that is extremally unnerving as both season 1 and 2 tell stories of Dr's who would weave a web of lies, manipulation and utter devastation. Countless patients would have their lives forever changed at the hands of these men, men who they were supposed to be able to trust, with some patients even dying from what was done to them.

I wanted to find out more about this world and these Dr's and nurses who go from taking an oath to help people to ultimately destroing lives. So today I sit down with former Special Agent Bruce Sackman for a fascinating and quiet terrifying two part discussion on medical serial killers.

When veterans hospital patients who are recovering well all of a sudden start to die in increasing numbers, it’s up to VA Special Agent in Charge Bruce Sackman to find out why. His shocking discovery rips open the hidden world of what goes on behind the bedside curtains when a killer doctor or nurse decides a patient must die, as detailed in his book Behind the Murder Curtain.

The true story of Bruce Sackman, Special Agent in Charge of the Department of Veterans Affairs Office of Inspector General. Sackman’s main responsibilities had been investigating white-collar crimes such as embezzlement when he is drawn into the macabre world of doctors and nurses who murder their patients. Sackman evolves from an investigator of routine cases to the world’s leading expert on Medical Serial Killers—MSKs—doctors and nurses who ply their evil trade hidden behind the privacy curtain at a patient’s bedside.

Behind the Murder Curtain tells how this dedicated investigator brought down four MSKs in Veterans Hospitals while developing the RED FLAGS PROTOCOL, which is now taught to investigators and forensic nurses throughout the world as a tool for stopping an MSK.

Wrongful conviction day - Temujin Kensu Nov 29, 2023

Show notes

October 2nd 2023 marked the 10th annual wrongful conviction day, a day designed to bring attention to a major issue within the American justice system, wrongful convictions.

Since 1989 more than 3,400 people have been exonerated in the United States, with more than 30,000 years lost between them. In 2022 alone 248 people would be freed from US prisons after being wrongfully incarcerated.

Temujin Kensu and his supporters were hoping that this year the governor of Michigan may finally address his incarceration and look to free him but sadly this was not the case.

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

In November of 1986 a man named Scott Macklam was fatally shot in the car park of a community college in Port Huron Michigan.

Fred Freeman who now goes by Temujin Kensu who was over 400 miles away in Escanaba was subsequently arrested, tried and found guilty of the crime and remains in prison almost 37 years later

No one saw the shooting that Temujin is convicted of committing. Instead, two men testified to seeing a stranger who possibly resembled Temujin at some point before or after the shooting. One of the witnesses was hypnotized before he testified.

No less than nine unimpeached neutral alibi witnesses testified to at trial, that Temujin was over 400 miles away at the time of this crime. The prosecution countered by suggesting that Temujin theoretically could have chartered a plane to go commit the murder and return in time to be seen by his alibi witnesses.

The biggest issue with that is the prosecution never offered any actual evidence to support this theory
