Behind Justice: Eddie Carbon

Cassie sits down with Eddie's sister to talk about his case and the injustice behind it. Summary of the case: In the early morning hours of April 8, 2016 the badly beaten and unconscious body of 33-year-old Luis Sedillo was found outside his apartment complex. He never regained consciousness and died just a week later. 24-year-old Eddie Carbon had been playing video games with Sedillo in his apartment earlier in the evening by both his own admission and by the witness statements of three other people who were in the apartment with Eddie and Sedille at that time. Eddie claims that he left his apartment after playing video games and went to another apartment where he was staying in the same complex. DNA collected from the murder weapon found DNA from at least two individuals, and entirely excluded Eddie Carbon. Additionally, all other DNA that was collected from the crime scene including DNA from the victim’s clothes ALL excluded Eddie Carbon entirely. Eddie initially fought the charges, but just before trial, he was scared into taking a 30-year-plea deal because the prosecution decided to seek the death penalty against Eddie if he went to trial and lost. Despite having a weak case with no forensic evidence to support the charges against Eddie, the prosecution and even Eddie’s own defense attorney exploited his low IQ and mental health struggles to get the case wrapped up and put to bed. Eddie was granted an appeal by the courts (unusual for a person who took a plea deal) and he is currently working pro se to seek a reversal of his pressured plea.
