there was no moon you know kind of a night you get where the stars are you think you can reach up and touch them
00:00:13
they're so vibrant but it's like pitch black out there for more than 18 years 48 hours has investigated what many say
00:00:24
is a case of injustice that case began in the early morning hours of April 4th 1989 when a young woman called 9-1-1
00:00:34
saying she thought her boyfriend had been shot the problem was she was three miles away from the crime scene and she
00:00:42
had trouble telling police how to get there something was not right why would somebody say there's something
00:00:52
happening here and nothing's there all we had was that he had been shot and that he was in the orange groves I sent
00:01:01
a deputy to pick her up because we absolutely would never have found him it would have been there all night
00:01:05
looking I am Dianne Clark I was a patrol sergeant in Brevard County when we got there she wouldn't get out of the car
00:01:15
she remained in the vehicle out here and refused to walk down there you don't want to see him you don't want to know
00:01:23
his condition there's something wrong with that it was a young white male laying on his side with his hands bound
00:01:32
behind his back the male victim was Chip Flynn he had a bullet wound was fought on the right side of his chest we have a
00:01:42
gun on the ground that we don't know who it belongs to he was conscious yeah speaking very
00:01:49
clearly just said get me out of here who shot you just take me home God get me out of here could you at least tell
00:01:56
us which way he went who did this to you he won't tell us this is so not typical it defies
00:02:04
explanation my name is Mark Richt see I was a road patrol deputy for the Brevard
00:02:09
County Sheriff's Office all of a sudden his breathing got shallow all of a sudden you know he deteriorated
00:02:18
really quickly he died before the ambulance got here the woman who called 9-1-1 was Chip Flynn's former girlfriend
00:02:29
Kim Halleck she said that she and chip had been in his truck this truck when a black man with a gun hijacked and drove
00:02:38
them to that remote Grove she alone managed to get back into the truck and escape driving those three
00:02:45
miles to chips friend's home they needed someone to put that murder on and Crossley green fit the bill it's an
00:02:57
example of race being a substitute for evidence I didn't kill that young man that guy got screwed today 26 years
00:03:05
after Crossley Green was sentenced to death for the murder of chip Flynn I did not kill that young man there is
00:03:12
compelling new evidence that the wrong person may have been sent to prison and the killer is still free the first rule
00:03:22
of homicide investigation is everybody who is at that theme is treated as a suspect until they're eliminated that's
00:03:29
not the way this happened
