Monterey, CA – This is the second part of our 3-part series on the impact of life sentences on three Monterey County residents. This story looks at a man who was sentenced to life with the possibility of parole for murder. He's losing hope even with an unlikely advocate: the attorney who prosecuted his case. It's a joint production of 90.3 KAZU and the Monterey County Herald. Series editor, former KAZU News Director Ben Adler introduces Herald reporter Julia Reynolds.
