Fairbanks 4 Supporters Not Giving Up

Dan Bross

The Tanana Chiefs Conference annual convention is happening in Fairbanks this week.  On Tuesday delegates heard from 4 interior men, 3 of them Alaska Native, the organization believes were wrongly convicted of murder.  The men known as “The Fairbanks 4”:George Frese, Kevin Pease, Marvin Roberts and Eugene Vent are serving long prison sentences for the 1997 beating death of teenager John Hartman in downtown Fairbanks, a case that’s long drawn questions.  KUAC’s Dan Bross reports.
