Each year, millions of Americans travel abroad and more than 3,000 are imprisoned every year. Many of them are wrongfully convicted, and many of them are told they will never go home again.
From L.A. Times Studios and Focus Features comes the brand-new podcast series, CONVICTED: ACROSS BORDERS. Hosted by famed lawyer and bestselling author, Marcia Clark, we’ll hear straight from the mouths of the men and women who lived through these trials. Through these stories we’ll explore how seemingly benign actions can lead to incarceration in foreign lands, how to navigate different legal systems when you don’t even speak the language, and who one turns to when the closest help is thousands of miles away.
Five unimaginably harrowing cases. Five traumatic fights for freedom. And five incredible true stories with emotional homecomings that have to be heard to be believed.
Convicted: Across Borders is produced by LA Times Studios and Treefort Media.
This is a paid podcast funded by Focus Features. The Los Angeles Times newsroom was not involved in the production of this podcast.
