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!

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.

It's all about the encore! Message from Jamie Snow and all of us at Snow Files Podcast! Thank you SO MUCH for your support - you are truly an amazing group!

Auld Lang Syne - One Man Quartet

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

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.
