Kite Line

This week, we hear from Koby Bluitt, daughter of Leon Benson, a long time Indiana prisoner and organizer. She tells us about Leon, their relationship, and her current efforts to help him get free. We’ve covered Leon’s case on Kite Line before: a case of poor eyewitness testimony that helped convict the man of a crime he adamantly maintains he did not commit. Koby tells us about how Leon has been spending his 23 years inside, and what it was like having a parent in prison. She closes with advice for those who have a loved one inside.

You can hear our previous episodes with and about Leon Benson here, here  here and here.
