    Jamie Snow's case to be featured on ABC's Nightline - June 3

    We’re thrilled to share that Jamie Snow’s case will be featured on ABC’s Nightline

    on Tuesday, June 3, 2025.

    This powerful national broadcast will shine a spotlight on the injustice that’s kept Jamie in prison for nearly 25 years — a conviction based on recanted informant testimony, inconsistent eyewitness accounts, and no physical evidence.

    Jamie Snow’s wrongful conviction will be featured on ABC’s Nightline — Tuesday, June 3. The segment features powerful voices calling for justice:

    Jamie Snow, speaking out from prison in his own words

    John Grisham, author & justice advocate

    Jason Flom, Wrongful Conviction podcast

    Marty Tankleff, exoneree, attorney & co creator of Making an Exonoree at Georgetown

    Marc Howard, Georgetown professor & co creator of Making an Exonoree at Georgetown

    Karl Leonard, Jamie’s attorney, Exoneration Project

    Nicole & Jessica Snow, Jamie’s daughters

    Now, with a Leave to Appeal for DNA testing pending before the Illinois Supreme Court, this Nightline feature comes at a critical moment.

    Please tune in — and continue sharing Jamie’s story. The more people know, the harder it becomes to ignore.

    Airs Tuesday, June 3rd on:

    ABC NewsLive PRIME with Lindsey Davis @6 CST/7 EST

    Nightline @11:35 CST/12:35 EST

    Watch with us live via Zoom @5:30 CST/6:30 EST

    Together, we’re making noise — and demanding truth.

    S3-EP42: Q&A: Sorry, Derek: Maurice Johnson - Alternative Suspects

    Join co-hosts Lesley, Tam and Ray as they discuss the alternative suspect, Maurice Johnson in depth. We go really deep in this discussion! And you can also meet our new Intern, Melinda! So exciting!

    In 1992, just 11 months after the murder of young Clark Gas Station attendant Bill Little, Kroger Station attendant Derek Brooks was shot in the chest during an armed robbery gone wrong, just 2.6 miles away. Like with Bill, the robber attempted to kill him with two shots to the chest, but the gun jammed. A petty sum of cash was stolen and the assailant fled in a maroon colored coupe, with a female get away driver. After being apprehended that same night, and identified with matching footprints and fingerprints, Maurice Johnson admitted to the crime, was charged with attempted murder and armed robbery, apologized to the victim, and was sentenced to twenty five years in prison. The same officers, detectives, and crime scene technicians worked both cases, and were key trial witnesses against Jamie Snow. They received a tip that Maurice Johnson admitted to the Clark Station robbery and murder. However, we cannot find any documents to suggest Maurice Johnson was ever investigated for Bill Little’s murder.

    S3-Bonus - Jamie's Songs

    Jamie was blown away by his Christmas present this year. Six musicians from 6 completely different genres were commissioned to write, compose, and record a song about Jamie. The only information they received was information about Jamie and his case, and they were asked to write a song about whatever aspect or view point resonated with them - whether it was from Jamie's point of view, a supporter's point of view, his family - anything goes. And man, did they really step up to the plate! I can't begin to tell you how wonderful these artists were to work with on this project. They were so in tune, pardon the pun, with Jamie's plight, and our efforts to overturn his wrongful conviction. They were filled with hope for his release, and that has everything to do with you. I have no doubt they garnered material from his support network because the lyrics speak for themselves. Thank you for that. We hope you enjoy them as much as we do! You can see pictures of the artists who are not anonymous and read the lyrics on the episode page on SnowFiles.net. All of them are simply amazing. So - for best listening, slap on your headphones - and don't forget to let us know what you think! Lyrics and links to the individual MP3's in the show notes.

    Lyrics: Snowman (acoustic, soulful)

    by Anonymous

    [verse 1]

    Locked up

    It get colder every year

    And for what

    How the hell did we end up here?


    No evidence.. no lessons learnt

    No trial to clear a name

    Are we just playing a game

    In a world full of shame


    And as the snow began to fall

    I could hear the angels calling


    [chorus]


    you see truth will always win

    You’ll be home once again

    Oh the winter snow

    Will always show there’s hope


    And it's like gold. And time will tell

    So hold on, your pain is felt

    There won’t be no rest

    We’ll do our best

    To get you home, where you belong

    Once again.


    [verse 2]


    22 long years

    Far too many tears

    It’s hard to imagine the pain

    You feel each day

    And stay, and wait and


    Up, up all night

    It soon will be, be your time to

    To relinquish this pain

    And hold your name

    As a symbol of hope and


    As the snow begins to fall

    I can hear the angels calling


    [chorus]


    [bridge]


    Locked up, for nothing

    Justice is coming

    I said locked up, right here, for nothing

    Justice, it's here, it's coming


    [chorus]

    Lyrics: Justice Shine (pop/country/ukulele)

    by Kel

    I see a snowman outside

    that’s what they call me inside

    of this awful place

    I did no mistake


    it’s so hard to breathe

    without family

    although they’re with me

    with their hearts baby


    [chorus]


    Yes I know

    that I’ll hear something good

    it will happen this time

    Now is the time

    And I know that I have you

    now is the time

    now is the time

    bright oh justice shine!


    And deep down I know

    I am not alone

    though it’s 22

    that i’ve been without you


    I’ll freeze my hands someday

    cause i’ll finally

    feel the snowman’s frost

    with my fingertips


    [chorus]


    I need your strength

    yes i feel that you are with me

    what is next?

    i want to be free


    Yes I know

    that I’ll hear something good

    it will happen this time

    Now is the time

    And I know

    that I have you

    now is the time

    now is the time

    bright oh justice

    bright oh justice shine!

    Lyrics: Pray for Snow (Rap)

    by Anonymous


    Pray for snow

    Pray for snow

    Pray for snow

    Pray for snow


    They sayin he did it

    he's sayin he didn't

    before you pass judgement

    let me tell you the story behind the sentence


    Of a dear friend

    serving life without parole

    It could be one of many

    but this time the name is Jamie Snow


    Locked up for a murder in a place

    that he didn't even go to

    sitting in a cage on year 22

    for a crime that happened Easter Sunday 91

    then 10 years later prosecutors sayin Jamie was the one, with the gun


    but when they lined 'em up

    eyewitnesses never said number 6 was the one

    informants got bills and if not they were threatened

    most likely to be killed


    and to make matters worse

    Jamie's court appointed attorney went to prison

    dealing with his own addiction

    like the first officer on the scene

    who also went to prison

    no murder weapon is listed

    and they been fighting the DNA testing


    The case is finally getting traction

    Will you help us?

    We're talking about a life

    So we gotta be now or never

    We gotta keep that pressure on

    cause we can never let up

    Send the documents and the letters


    Something's wrong I hope you get the picture

    You got the wrong man in the middle

    and that's the facts, we not talking riddles

    Just trying to make it home before another Christmas


    Pray for snow

    Pray for snow

    Pray for snow

    Pray for snow

    by Anonymous


    This can't be my legacy (shout out)

    Just waiting for that call (shout out)


    I need some good news (shout out)

    I need some good news (shout out)


    It doesn't feel any good

    No matter how I try to prove

    You know you've got the wrong guy


    [chorus]


    It's not right

    I won't quit the fight

    I got a life that's out there for me

    Let me get back at what I used to be


    You know it wasn't me

    You fought to hide the proof

    But now I see the truth

    Still won't test DNA


    [chorus]


    It's not right

    I won't quit the fight

    I got a life that's out there for me

    Let me get back at what I used to be


    I saw my kids grow up in pictures

    Behind these cold, gray walls


    [chorus]


    It's not right

    I won't quit the fight

    I got a life that's out there for me

    Let me get back at what I used to be

    Lyrics: Free at last

    by: Sparoxzy


    I'm in chains, in bondage

    I'm caged, I'm stuck here


    And it's been awhile in here, it's been awhile

    but I can't wait to breathe the air of freedom

    lying on the grass, gazing at the stars

    oh it's been awhile


    It might be dark right now

    but someday I'll see the light

    someday I'll see the light


    Ohh oh oh ohhh

    It might be dark right now

    but someday I'll see the light

    someday I'll see the light


    and I will scream out loud

    I'm free at last

    I'm free at last

    Free at last


    and I will scream out loud

    I'm free at last

    I'm free at last

    Free at last


    and I will scream out loud

    I'm free at last

    I'm free at last

    Free at last


    and I will scream out loud

    I'm free at last

    I'm free at last

    Free at last, oh oh


    I'm in pain

    I'm broken and somedays

    I feel like I shouldn't wake from my bed

    so I pray for better days


    and I

    I know I'm not alone

    I know I'm not alone


    And I know that someday I'll be home


    It might be dark right now

    but someday I'll see the light

    someday I'll see the light


    It might be dark right now

    but someday I'll see the light

    someday I'll see the light


    and I will scream out loud

    I'm free at last

    I'm free at last

    Free at last


    and I will scream out loud

    I'm free at last

    I'm free at last

    Free at last


    and I will scream out loud

    I'm free at last

    I'm free at last

    Free at last


    and I will scream out loud

    I'm free at last

    I'm free at last

    Free at last


    Oh oh ohhh

    Lyrics: Snowman (metal)

    by Theodore Rondeau


    No matter it's so far

    It won't give me back my time

    Go, my heart torn apart

    For an unfair crime


    Snowman Life

    Cold as night

    Fear of hope

    I can't believe noone anymore

    I just see my life in picture

    It belongs to me...I am sure


    Snowman

    I can now freeze the fate

    I won't let come the hate


    Sinless life for a jail

    For my innocence you give me hell

    My tears on 6 photographies

    My pain flies in ashes

    ashes


    Good call from the justice

    What else to say? Fuck the police

    Look at me, the mistake you've done

    What if it was your son?

    your son


    I will never be down

    I will always hold on

    Life without parole sentence

    Will bring you repentance

    I will never be crowned

    For all this past life gone

    But I'm still who I am

    Nothing more than Snowman

    S3-EP42: Q&A: Big Jeff-Little Jeff: Jeff Durbin and Jeff Miller - Alternative Suspects

    Join co-hosts Bruce, Lesley, Tam and Ray as they discuss the "Jeff's" in depth. An extra long episode for you listening pleasure. We also start with Bruce and Ray's thoughts on the Bible Story episode because they were unable to join us on the pop up episode. Lot's of interesting theories and laughs in this one!

    In August of 1991, just five months after the murder of young gas station attendant Bill Little, a string of other gas station robberies plagued Bloomington. Jeff Miller and Jeff Durbin colluded to rob gas stations together with a gun, for petty sums of cash. Durbin was the getaway driver, and planned to use doctored cab driver’s log sheets to evade detection. Miller chose an Adam’s Family Halloween mask. Regardless, Miller was identified by people who knew him when he behaved erratically after the last robbery, and the two eventually confessed, being sentenced to 38 years behind bars between the two. These known, convicted, and self-admitted robbers were never seriously investigated for the strikingly similar robbery and murder of Bill Little. Listen to hear how they avoided prosecution for Jamie’s case, and the ominous remarks made by one of them, after coming face to face with Jamie, post conviction.
