Wiehl of Justice – FOX News Radio

In part two of the Wiehl of Justice interview with newly exonerated Cal Harris, Cal opens up and explains why he wants justice for those he feels abused their official powers in his case.

We also learn more about who they feel is the real perpetrator against Michele Harris, and how they are trying to help authorities pursue this...

For Cal Harris, the fourth time was a charm. Harris was found not guilty of the murder of his wife, Michele Harris in a bench trial�(no jury) before Judge Richard Mott on May 24. �Harris had been convicted twice before, with those convictions overturned on appeal. �His third trial ended in a hung jury. �It’s only now that Harris can finally relax, knowing that he can no longer be tried for Michele’s murder. Wiehl of Justice caught up with Harris and his attorney, Bruce Barket to discuss his...

So far, I’ve been talking a lot about the more technical aspects of this case. The investigations. The evidence. The confessions. All of the things that added up to two men behind bars. But, there’s an emotional side to this too. Of course there is the emotional toll that this has taken on Jonathan and David. They�ve been behind bars for a long time for a crime they may not have committed. There’s also the toll this has taken on Jonathan’s and David’s families. I wanted to speak to a few of...

Palm prints and polygraphs! Yes – those are the subjects of Episode 4 of the Adeline Wilford murder case. The plot most assuredly thickens in this episode, as three new characters come into play. Is it possible that these individuals are the ones actually responsible for the Wilford murder? In the last episode, we learned about the concept of “false confessions” that may explain why the men originally convicted fessed up to a crime they now claim they did not commit. (See links to past...

Here we are at Episode 3 of the Adeline Wilford murder case. Thanks for staying with me as we try to ascertain exactly what happened to Adeline Wilford, and who was involved. In this episode we will delve into the fascinating topic of false confessions. Why would a suspect (or multiple suspects) confess to something they didn’t do? It turns out that this is not unprecedented. Both Jonathan Smith and Ray Andrews each confessed to their parts in the Wilford murder, but later either recanted or...

In Episode 2 of The Adeline Wilford Murder, Wiehl of Justice takes a closer look at Beverly Haddaway. Ms. Haddaway was quite the character! She could swear like a sailor, and didn’t mince words when she wanted to express her opinion. Haddaway became integral to this erstwhile cold case because she was willing to implicate one of her own relatives – her nephew – in the murder of Adeline Wilford. But Beverly didn’t do things altruistically. As you’ll find out in Episode 2, she certainly had...

A couple of months ago, I wrapped up the Cal Harris story on Wiehl of Justice. I left you with the knowledge that Cal’s third trial ended in a mistrial, and that I had learned from sources close to the trial that they jury was split 6-6 on whether or not Cal was guilty. I also told you that it wasn’t yet known if there would be a fourth trial.
