Muhammad Ali and Bob Dylan
In 1976, some of America's most famous faces campaign to clear Carter and Artis's names.
In 1976, Rubin Carter became a cause c茅l猫bre. Eight years after he and John Artis were given a triple life sentence for murdering three people in a New Jersey bar, Muhammad Ali and Bob Dylan put their celebrity might behind clearing their names. We hear from Ali himself, learn that he and Rubin hated each other, and meet the man who built bridges between them. Also, Tom Vicedomini, grandson of one of the Lafayette Bar and Grill victims, tells how he learned about his grandfather鈥檚 murder almost a decade after it actually happened.
Presented by Steve Crossman.
