Watch Ashley Flowers on the Kelly Clarkson Show

Ashley Flowers appeared on the Kelly Clarkson show to discuss her podcast Crime Junkie. Crime Junkie was the top show of the year in 2023 for its coverage of victims’ stories. 

Ashley discusses how Crime Junkies helped draw attention to the conviction of James Reyos, which resulted in his exoneration after 38 years. James Reyos was convicted of murdering Fr. Patrick Ryan but was exonerated with fingerprint evidence after Odessa Police discovered evidence in the case that had yet to be examined. 

Kelly and Ashley talk with the Crime Junkies who listened to the original episode and helped draw attention to the wrongful conviction in the case. You can listen to the update episode here. 

The Kelly Clarkson Show is hosted by Grammy-winning artist Kelly Clarkson on NBC.
