“'Time felt slow, slow, slow,' Adolfo said. 'It wasn’t getting no better. When you’re in prison, you’re stuck there all day. Nothing to do but stare at the walls.

When Adolfo Davis was sentenced to life without parole at 16, he couldn't read or write. Once he learned, he bought pen and paper at the commissary and wrote to every law firm he could find, hoping someone would take his case.

In Come by Chance, Newfoundland, two babies were switched at birth. They discovered the mistake 52 years later, and it turns out they weren't alone. "What was going on at that hospital?" one asked. "Was it done on purpose?”
