Haunting Miscarriage of Justice

In this week's edition of The New KCTS 9 Connects with Enrique Cerna, hear the story of a haunting miscarriage of justice. A lynching, not in the deep South, but in Seattle and in this bizarre case, the three men convicted of the crime were African American U.S. soldiers.

What he discovered, what really happened, and how this case is breaking wide open all over again.
