Innocent and Incarcerated for 34 Years

Imagine arriving home to find a corpse in your living room. That’s what happened to Jamie Morgan Kane. It was the beginning of a mind-blowing nightmare that lasted for over three decades.

Born on the Isle of Man, Jamie was raised in America by a woman he thought to be his mother. During the Vietnam war, he served as a medic in the thick of the gore and was special ops trained like Jason Bourne.

In California, he married, had a child and worked as a mechanic. But unsuspecting to Jamie, his seemingly normal life was about to be turned upside down... after discovering a corpse in his house, he removed it out of fear he would be blamed. The prosecutor wanted to give him and his wife the death penalty.

In Folsom prison, Jamie’s military training earned him a reputation as a skilled fighter, which upset a leader of the Aryan Brotherhood prison gang. Numerous attempts were made on his life. Eventually, he settled down to helping people in the prison until his final release in 2018.

Jamie will be speaking to a live audience in London at this Funzing event. Interviewed by author, speaker and activist, Shaun Attwood, Jamie will tell his jaw-dropping story and you’ll be able to question a man who was incarcerated for so long that he completely bypassed the Internet.
