False Confessions, No Evidence: Inside the Yogurt Shop Murders Miscarriage of Justice In this powerful segment of Hidden Killers Live, we continue watching the APD press conference and confront one of the most devastating truths about this case: the state prosecuted and convicted the wrong men. Michael Scott and Robert Springsteen were convicted in 2001 and 2002, based on confessions taken after 18- and 5-hour interrogations respectively. No physical evidence tied them to the crime scene. They were convicted anyway. In 2009, DNA evidence excluded themāand charges were finally dropped. But the damage was already done. Springsteen had been sentenced to death. Scott to life. We play back the portion of the press conference where Travis County DA Jose Garza publicly acknowledges their innocenceāand we react to the gravity of what that admission means. This isnāt just about a late apology. This is about decades of institutional failure. Itās about tunnel vision, bad interrogation tactics, and a justice system that clung to a theory while DNA screamed āyouāre wrong.ā We talk false confessions, prosecutorial overreach, and what real restitution should look like in cases like thisābecause you donāt just walk away from death row and go back to normal. #YogurtShopMurders #FalseConfession #WrongfulConviction #MichaelScott #RobertSpringsteen #CoercedConfession #TravisCountyDA #JusticeReform #HiddenKillersLive #InnocenceAcknowledged Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
