It's always a great Saturday afternoon when we get to spend it with supporters. We've missed you so much! In this Snow & Tell Zoom discussion, Jamie gave an update on where he is on going through the 8000 documents, we talk about about last week's episode about Bo, and Barton McNeil's cousin Chris Ross joined in to give us an update on last week's hearing. We appreciate all of you more than you know. And don't forget, Peace and Justice for Jamie Snow think it, say it, write it every single day!

Snowfiles most recently released an episode on January 27, 2022. Just days later, Cohost Tam’s son passed an untimely, sudden death. The team took three months off to grieve and support…but also to investigate. 28 year old Bo died while in police custody for a seat belt violation. He had a medical history and the outcome was devastating, but something was off. Tam’s investigative spirit was ignited, and she dug into her son’s case immediately. This episode presents all the evidence that was gathered during a mother’s quest for the truth. Snowfiles will return to normal broadcasts presenting the wrongful conviction of Jamie Snow, on May 18, 2022. A few updates: Jamie recently received the 8000 documents in Stateville, and is still reviewing them. He has a status hearing on May 9th at 1:30 via Zoom. We don't expect much activity because the documents are still under review, but if you'd like to attend, please private message either me, Lesley or Bruce, and we will give you the information to log in. You may be familiar with the Barton McNeil case - also in McLean County, and also prosecuted by Charles Reynard and Teena Griffin for the murder of his 3 year old daughter. Bart has a big hearing in McLean County scheduled on May 12 at 1pm - so if you're in the local area, please attend! It's at the McLean County courthouse at 1:30, and it would be amazing if we could pack the courthouse! We will be covering that case in the upcoming season, and you can learn more about the Barton McNeil case at: freebart.org We miss you! We have a Snow & Tell Zoom scheduled TENTIVELY for Saturday May 14th at 4:30pm EST, and we'd love for you to join us to catch up, discuss case events, and talk about both Jamie and Bart's recent hearings. We may even be able to twist someone's arm from Bart's support camp to give us the lowdown on the hearing.

Jamie really enjoyed participating in this great ZOOM discussion Saturday afternoon with family and supporters. We talked about alternative suspects, Jamie's case updates, 8000 missing documents, and Ray - who will now forever be known as the FOIA sensei. We hope you enjoy our first Snow & Tell Zoom as much as we did and we want to thank everyone for joining us! We appreciate all of you more than you know. And don't forget, Peace and Justice for Jamie Snow think it, say it, write it every single day! Music: Theme Song: Black Moons, The 126ers

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.
