In less than 30 days, the state of Tennessee plans to execute Tony Carruthers - despite no physical evidence placing him at the scene of the crime and a conviction based on testimonies from informants who were secretly paid by the state. 30 years later, the state still refuses to run a single forensic test that could save Tony’s life. Before the clock runs out, the ACLU’s legal team is fighting for Tony’s life, and urging the state of Tennessee to conduct DNA testing that could prove his innocence.
