Description

Imagine spending 24 years in prison for a crime you did commit—but being buried under a mountain of corruption, injustice, and lies by the very system meant to ensure fairness.




In this powerful episode of Nothing’s Off the Table, Luis “Tony” Charriez shares his harrowing story of surviving nearly a quarter-century in prison, not just for his actions—but because of a broken system that used paid witnesses, withheld evidence, and chose career advancement over the truth.




We talk about:


• The tragic night that altered the course of his life


• The corrupt prosecutor and $54,000 in undisclosed payments to witnesses


• How Tony found faith, purpose, and legal strategy behind bars


• His emotional release after 24 years—and the wife who never left his side


• The ongoing trauma of reentering society after losing half a lifetime




This is not just a story about prison. It’s a story about faith, resilience, injustice—and a man who refused to be defined by his worst mistake or the system that tried to forget him.
