Plot Summary
The series revolves around 53-year old Dale Wayne Sigler; he killed John Zeltner, a Subway employee, in Arlington, Texas in April 1990. He was sentenced to death in 1991, but his death sentence was changed to life three years later because his lawyers argued that he should be retroactively considered under the then-new jury selection rules. Under Texas law, he became eligible for parole after 30 years.[3]
