TL;DR Summary

A Florida death row inmate, scheduled to be executed, confessed in a documentary to two additional killings, including the case of a missing teenager in 1986. James Barnes claimed responsibility for the murder of Chester Wetmore and Brenda Fletcher, but authorities found no evidence to support his claims. Barnes is set to be executed for the 1988 murder of Patricia Miller. The documentary filmmaker, Werner Herzog, warned that Barnes may be manipulating law enforcement through false confessions. Barnes is not fighting his death sentence and expressed a desire to "clean the slate" and provide closure to the victims' families.
