Description

Join Denver Post reporter and author Justin Wingerter to discuss his new book, Four Shots in Oskie: Murder and Innocence in Middle America. Floyd Bledsoe spent more than 15 years behind bars for the 1999 kidnapping and murder of Camille Arfmann in Oskaloosa, Kansas. The crimes were committed by his brother Tom, who framed Floyd. Here's what the Kansas City Star wrote in its review: Four Shots in Oskie tells the story of a gross miscarriage of justice with sharp precision and compelling insight. Wingerter captures the psyche of a small Kansas town and illustrates the way the criminal justice system can veer terribly off course. Deeply reported, this is an important story about a decades-long struggle to right an appalling wrong. —Katie Moore, The Kansas City Star Website: https://denverpressclub.org/organizer/denver-press-club/
