Gilbert Cannon

On June 22nd, 1991, 40-year-old Charles Holden left work and stopped by a Hardee's restaurant. A stranger came up to his window asking for a ride and Charles agreed to give him one. But, just a few miles down the road Charles changed his mind and a fight ensued. He was able to get away in his truck. But, when he got home he found this man lurking around his house. And, hours later with police on the scene, he found his mother, Dorothy Donovan, murdered in her house next door. Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss murderer Gibert Cannon and a case that is so bizarre, it's hard to believe it happened how it did. The police didn't believe the story Charles told them about the mysterious stranger and they firmly believed that he killed his own mother. It took 14 years and a series of fortunate events to find the real killer and clear Charles in the murder.
