In the Redemption Project episode “Officer Down”, Van Jones meets with Thomas Morgan, a former sheriff who was shot in the neck and left to die while responding to a call in 1997. Twenty years after the incident, Tom wants to meet with Jason Samuel, who was the 17-year-old gang member who pulled the trigger.
