In this powerful episode of Voiceless Behind Bars, host Sarah DeArmond sits down with Marwin Battles, who has spent over 33 years behind bars for a crime rooted in self-defense.

Wrongfully convicted in 1991, Marwin’s story highlights profound racial injustices and legal missteps that have kept him incarcerated.From the racially charged events that led to the tragic altercation at the Bay Port Apartments in Norman, Oklahoma, to the court's denial of a self-defense instruction and evidence of racial bias, Marwin's case raises serious questions about fairness and equality in the justice system.Despite the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals modifying his sentence to life with the possibility of parole, errors in court documents have wrongly labeled his sentence as life without parole, delaying his chances for release.

Learn how Marwin’s case has gained national attention and why advocates are calling for his release.Marwin has not only fought for justice but also used his time in prison to create meaningful change. His nonprofit, the Allinone Project, supports aging inmates and juvenile offenders, aiming to advance prison reform, re-entry programs, and housing solutions.
