  • Presenting: “Murder in the Orange Grove: The Troubled Case Against Crosley Green”
    Sep 25 2024

    On a dark night in April 1989, a young man named Chip Flynn was shot in a Florida orange
    grove. His ex-girlfriend Kim was the only surviving witness and claimed a Black man had
    robbed, kidnapped, and killed Chip. A year later, Crosley Green was sentenced to death by an
    all-white jury for Flynn's murder. After 32 years behind bars, a judge ruled Green was wrongfully
    convicted — so why is he still in prison?

    Here’s a preview of the new “48 Hours” podcast, “Murder in the Orange Grove: The Troubled Case Against Crosley Green,” which offers the most comprehensive deep dive into this shocking case that leaves one man fighting desperately for his freedom.
