Oliver Campbell spent 30 years trying to clear his name after being wrongly convicted of murder.
He spent more than a decade in seven different prisons for a crime he didn't commit.
In this podcast you'll hear how Oliver suffered a brain injury when he was a baby - which affected his memory and meant he was vulnerable to manipulation.
His legal team said a confession at the time was made amid the immense stress of 14 interviews by police… and the evidence against him didn't add up.
Hear from Oliver himself and the people who helped clear his name.

Every week Mark Newby gets letters from people desperate for his help. Those people are behind bars, they say they are innocent and have no way of proving it.
They need a criminal appeal lawyer to take on their case - and that's where Mark comes in. But he must choose who he is going to fight for.
In this episode Mark talks about how he decides what case to pursue. He says he has to be tough - the resources aren't there to help everyone. And then when he starts working on a case, it can take years, even decades, to be freed.
Then when they are lucky enough to be released, the wrongfully convicted get less help than those who are guilty and who have served their time.
Then their chance of getting ANY compensation is minimal. Mark is fighting to change that.
