TalkLeft wrote about Darnell Williams here, here and here.
Williams was facing execution for his role in the murders of a Gary couple when former Gov. Joseph Kernan commuted his sentence to life without parole five days before he was to be put to death this past summer.
Williams' near-execution is the subject of a documentary premiering on A&E's "American Justice" March 16.
"Countdown to an Execution" chronicles the frantic attempts by Juliet Yackel, Williams' chief attorney, to save his life before the scheduled July 9, 2004, execution.
