Presenting: "Murder in the Orange Grove: The Troubled Case Against Crosley Green"

Author: Emash Digital & Mike Ferguson, Mike Morford September 25, 2024 Duration: 13:28

On a dark night in April 1989, a young man named Chip Flynn was shot in a Florida orange
grove. His ex-girlfriend Kim was the only surviving witness and claimed a Black man had
robbed, kidnapped, and killed Chip. A year later, Crosley Green was sentenced to death by an
all-white jury for Flynn's murder. After 32 years behind bars, a judge ruled Green was wrongfully
convicted — so why is he still in prison?
