240. Wrongfully Convicted: Shabaka Shakur’s 27-Year Fight for Freedom
Thursday, 14 August, 2025
Imagine being accused of murdering two of your friends, convicted based on fabricated evidence, and spending the next 27 and a half years behind bars for a crime you did not commit. That was the reality for Shabaka Shakur, whose wrongful conviction was secured by the now-disgraced NYPD detective Louis Scarcella. In this gripping conversation, Shabaka shares the harrowing details of his arrest, trial, and decades-long fight to prove his innocence. He opens up about the emotional toll of losing family members who died believing he was guilty, the determination it took to study the law from inside prison walls, and the network of wrongfully convicted men who fought together for justice. Shabaka also reflects on the broken criminal justice system of the late ’80s and ’90s, when closing cases often mattered more than uncovering the truth. His story is one of unimaginable loss, unshakable resilience, and the relentless pursuit of freedom. This is more than a story about wrongful conviction—it’s about the human cost of a justice system that gets it wrong.
