Previously on Bear Brook Season 2, a true crime story.

My main goal is to raise the concerns around this conviction to the extent that it would

encourage the state to revisit the evidence.

The clerk, who I know, came over to chat with me, and she said that she had been listening to

undisclosed. She's like, you know what? There's a big box in our basement with Jason Carroll's

name on it. Hey, the fucking nail clippings are here. The nail clippings are here. What? The nail clippings are here.

To the answer to who killed Sharon Johnson is very likely in that envelope right there in front of us.

It is possible that the answer to who killed Sharon Johnson is in this envelope in front of us.

It's been about 17 months since that day with the box.

The box of evidence from the investigation into Sharon Johnson's murder.

The box had the clothes Sharon was wearing when she died.

The knife police say she was stabbed with.

The fingernail clippings from Sharon's hands with blood on them.

Blood that might belong to her attacker.

For 17 months, Jason Carroll and his attorney with the New England Innocence Project have been trying to get that evidence DNA tested.

They think there's a real shot that evidence could exonerate Jason.

But the state of New Hampshire didn't. You might remember, they said there was, quote,

no scenario where DNA testing could exonerate Jason. So they objected to Jason's request for

DNA testing. That is, until just a few days ago.

So did you celebrate?

Yes. I mean, I think, I think, I think I celebrate.

I guess I would say yes, I celebrated.
