Thieves in the night

Two eyewitnesses led police to focus on, and eventually arrest, Carter and Artis. But why were Alfred Bello and Arthur Bradley at the scene of the crime?

We meet the two eyewitnesses that led police to focus on, and eventually arrest, Carter and Artis. Alfred Bello and Arthur Bradley would become star witnesses, but why were they at the scene of the crime?

Plus, for the first time, the policeman that arrested John Artis and Rubin Carter tells us his side of the story, and we hear that dramatic arrest told from both sides.
