One Minute Remaining - Stories from the inmates

For more than a decade, Anthony Duke has been behind bars, serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole for the 2011 murder of his friend, Ronald Hauser. It's a crime Tony has always maintained he did not commit.

As a long-time guest of One Minute Remaining, Tony has shared the realities of life behind bars. But recently, that life was turned upside down when, without warning, he was told to pack up his belongings. He was being transferred to another prison.

In this episode, I catch up with Tony to find out where he's ended up, how his new surroundings compare to the prison he'd grown accustomed to, and what it's like to have your entire world uprooted when you have no say in the matter.

We also take a closer look at how prison transfers actually work, what happens when an inmate is moved, and the challenges of starting over in an unfamiliar facility.

The case against Traveontaye Berry was built on a foundation of procedural failures, forensic gaps, and witness contamination.

But what does a seasoned trial lawyer see when he reviews the entire investigation, the trial itself, and the conviction?

In this episode, Michael Leonard of Leonard Trial Lawyers in Chicago joins us. Michael has spent his career defending people charged with serious crimes. He knows what the law requires. He knows what happened here.

Michael sits down to dissect every piece of evidence we've examined, every decision that was made, and every moment where the system failed to protect a sixteen-year-old boy's right to a fair trial.

This is the legal reality of Traveontaye Berry's case: 52 Years in Just 2 Hours.

The jury deliberated for less than two hours.

When they returned, the verdict was guilty on Count 4: First-Degree Murder. Traveontaye Berry, sixteen years old, was facing fifty-two years in prison. The rest of his life, behind bars.
In this final episode of our series, Tray talks about that moment. What it felt like to hear the words. The reality of his sentence hitting him. The years ahead stretching out with no clear end.
But this is not where his story ends.

After more than a decade in prison, new evidence emerged. Two people came forward with sworn affidavits claiming that Myleka Avery, the state's only eyewitness, admitted to them that she lied. That she knew Traveontaye Berry was innocent. That she identified him anyway.

Based on these new affidavits, Tray was granted a post-conviction evidentiary hearing. For the first time in more than eleven years, his conviction could be challenged. New testimony could be heard. The truth could finally emerge.

This is Part Ten of Traveontaye Berry's story, and the beginning of his fight for freedom: 52 Years in Just 2 Hours.

By the time Traveontaye Berry's case reached trial in February 2015, he had already faced a choice most teenagers should never have to make: accept a plea deal or roll the dice in a courtroom.

He chose to fight.

In this episode, Tray walks us through what that meant. The deal he turned down. The prosecution's case against him. His defence. What it felt like to be 16 years old, sitting in a courtroom, watching a jury make a decision that would define the rest of his life.

He talks about the trial process itself: the evidence presented, the witnesses who testified, the arguments made on both sides. And he talks about his own experience of it all. The fear. The hope. The reality of watching a jury deliberate for less than two hours before returning a guilty verdict.
Six counts of First-Degree Murder. Fifty-two years.

Over the past seven episodes, we’ve examined the physical evidence gaps, the witness contamination, the unrecorded photo lineup, and the investigative decisions that led to Traveontaye Berry’s conviction.

But what does a professional murder investigator see when he listens to these police interviews?

In this episode, we sit down with Steve Keogh, a former Scotland Yard Detective Inspector with 30 years in the Metropolitan Police and 12 years investigating homicides. During his career, Keogh investigated over 100 murders across London. He’s written extensively on how murders are really investigated, consulted on major crime cases, and now examines murder investigations for television and his media work.

We played him the police interview recordings from the Traveontaye Berry investigation. We asked him to assess the interview methodology, the witness handling, the procedural decisions, and the investigative approach that shaped this case.

What Steve identified is a masterclass in how not to conduct a murder investigation. From leading questions to witness contamination, hear how a veteran detective works.

This is Part Eight of Traveontaye Berry’s story: 52 Years in Just 2 Hours.
