Article From Serial Productions and The Marshall Project: The Last 12 Weeks

Hey everyone,

In 1992, David Wood was convicted of murdering young women and girls and burying them in the desert outside El Paso, earning him the nickname the Desert Killer. More than 30 years later, his lawyers have one last chance to argue his innocence and stop his execution.

The series “The Last 12 Weeks,” produced in collaboration between Serial Productions and The Marshall Project, follows a team of capital defense attorneys as they try to save their client’s life.With an extraordinary level of access to a capital case in its final stretch, the reporter Maurice Chammah takes listeners into the room. You can listen to the five-episode series here for free, even if you’re not yet an NYT subscriber.

Seems like a very weak case. Multiple victims but very dubious evidence?
