Titus was convicted in August 2002 and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. But the investigation was reopened 10 years later by a newly formed Cold Case unit who quickly identified Titus as the primary suspect and arrested him in 2001. Prosecutors argued to the jury that Titus would have had enough time to drive to the murder scene and back, rendering his alibi faulty. At the hour of the murder, Titus was deer hunting with a friend over 27 miles away and thus was cleared by the original detectives on the case. The men did not know each other and were hunting separately when they were each killed with a single shot to the back. The murders of Doug Estes and Jim Bennett occurred in the woods adjacent to Titus’ farm on the first day of deer season on November 17, 1990.

I’d like to thank Susan and Jacinda and the Michigan Innocence Clinic and so many others who I can’t wait to thank in person.” I’ve lost a lot of my life locked-up for something I didn’t do and now I just want to focus on making up for that lost time. Titus said, “I’m just so happy to finally have my freedom, and so thankful the justice system finally got it right. It was they that uncovered the violations. The series is produced by Red Marble Media, filmed in conjunction with Simpson’s Undisclosed podcast.
