Introducing: Radical

00:00:01 Speaker 1: Last year, I read a letter that I don't think was ever meant to go public. It said that a man convicted of shooting sheriff's deputies and killing one of them was innocent. He's a legendary man, a man who over the last century in America has been called a prophet, a messiah, a terrorist, and a villain. In the sixties, he was a black power activist named h Rap Brown. We did not make the laws in this country. We are neither Marley not legally confined to those laws. Those laws that keep them up keep us down. H Rap Brown had the attention of the most powerful people in America, oh lice departments, the United States government, and their agents. They hated rat Brown all the way to death. But unlike some other black leaders at the time, he managed to survive, and he converted to Islam, changed his name to Jamil Alamin, and move to my hometown, Atlanta, Georgia. On the ninth of March sixteenth, two thousand two, deputies showed up outside his neighborhood mosque and there was a shootout. It was almost like an overkiller, like it was a war zone. That book killed one deputy and severely injured another. I was please, don't shoot me no, nor don't shoot me no, nor don't shoot me no no. Federal agents chase down their only serious suspect, Jamil Lamine, and he was convicted, but the evidence was shaky and the whole truth never came out during the trial. To say that this gun is the gun who fired this book is very, very difficult. My name is Mosey's Secret. I'm an investigative journalist, and when I started looking into the case, I discovered something even more sinister than the shooting of two deputies. The FBI, a trap brown, Jamil Lamine, local drug dealers, and even an alleged serial killer. They were all caught up in it. Tell me he got the kids, he gonna star some beef and it ain't gonna be he gonna make up or read and kill the mother fluck. And they learned that for years, someone else, not Jamille Allami, has been confessing to shooting the two deputies that night outside the mosque. I've got a way with murder for real. They convicted the wrong guy and sit the wrong guy to prison for life for something that another guy did.
