19:31Now PlayingIn 2002, Robert Roberson brought his very sick 2-year-old daughter Nikki to the emergency room. She died the next day. After doctors diagnosed SBS, or shaken baby syndrome, Roberson was arrested and later convicted. He now sits on death row in Texas, scheduled for execution on October 17th. The man largely responsible for putting him there is Brian Wharton, the former police detective who led the investigation and subsequent arrest of Roberson. Wharton, now an ordained minister in the United Methodist Church, says he made a mistake and Roberson is in fact innocent. Will it be enough to save his life? Brian Wharton joins The Excerpt to share what made him, after all these years, change his mind.
