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.
