Andre had been shot in 1998, a year prior to this crime being committed, but his recovery was extensive – Andre almost lost his life when he got shot. A year later he was still unable to walk properly, let alone run.
Yet, he was still identified in a line up as the assailant.

How many times have you heard the phrase, “you look so much like someone I know”?
I hear it all the time, but I rarely think about that statement much after it’s said. Sometimes I wonder if I saw the person they are referring to, would I also think they look like me, or not at all. And that is usually the extent of the energy or thought I give to it.
For Andre Brown, a 21-year old college student at the Borough of Manhattan Community College, this one statement changed his life forever.

Every year, on Pravin’s death anniversary, his family holds an annual memorial in Carbondale, at the exact location where Pravin took his last breath.
It’s not an easy spot to get to, especially in the winter time with the tough terrain, but Lovely and her family make the 6-hour drive every February to gather in Pravin’s memory and say a prayer for him.

Lovely was quoted as saying, “ I wanted the world to know that my son was not a drug-dealer, he was not drunk. He died because he was hit. I did not want Gaege to be put behind bars for his life. But yes, I wanted him to know that there are consequences to your actions and I want the law to hold him accountable.”

Pravin’s family stayed with Robinson when court was adjourned, from 4:00 pm onwards, waiting for the jury to reach a verdict. They were in the very same office where they had initially met David Robinson for the first time.
Then, at almost 11:00 pm, a police guard came in and told Robinson that it was time to head back to court. The jury deliberated for seven hours, and had finally reached a verdict.

Pravin’s family only learned of Gaege in the first place, because of Monica. The police never even shared Gaege’s name with Lovely while Pravin was missing, or during the investigation.
And now, more than three years later, Lovely finally got the opportunity to witness Gaege being held accountable for his crimes.

The trial started – but so did the games the defense was playing. From trying to request a motion for mistrial on a regular basis, to demanding that photos of Pravin not be allowed in the courtroom, it was clear the defense was not interested in a fair and just trial.

Armed with all the evidence and knowledge that Lovely and Monica had gathered, they set out to prove what they knew to be true, and to get justice for Pravin’s murder.
Without the help of the Carbondale Police, or the State’s Attorney, or anyone else who had the power to investigate and press charges in this case – Lovely and Monica knew they had to take care of it themselves.

With so many pieces of evidence pointing to the exact things their instincts were telling them, Pravin’s family and Monica knew there was so much more to the story than they were being told. And if they wanted to get to the truth, they’d have to find it for themselves.
That’s exactly What they set out to do.

We know the audio from Jonathan’s interview was difficult to hear last week because of the poor audio quality, so we are sharing the police interview transcript on our Facebook page for anyone who wants to read it in its entirety.
in this weeks episode we hear Gaeges second Police interview and he changed many details from what he had originally said, even admitting to his lies at one point.

On Feb 17th, 2014 Jonathan was interviewed by the police. That was before Gaege was ever brought in for questioning. Even though they drove to the party together, both Gaege and his cousin Jonathan asserted that Jonathan did not leave the party with Gaege that night. The audio of the police interview is extremely poor and we did our best to make it intelligable so you can hear Jonathan's words. We felt, however, it was key to hear at least some of this interview to help understand how these interviews impacted the case.

It’s hard to fathom that Pravin could have been left where he was, and in the condition that he was, by one person alone. That’s one of the reasons Monica thinks Gaege wasn’t alone when he attacked Pravin and left him on the side of Illinois Route 13. But there is a lot more to it than that.

There were two versions of events for the night Pravin went missing – one that Gaege was telling the police, and the other that Pravin’s autopsy and phone records were revealing. And then, of course, there were the accounts of the evening from Pravin’s friends who were with him at the party. All these pieces put together tell the story of what actually occurred.
