Crosley Green's final hours of freedom

Watch "48 Hours: Crosby Green's Hard Time"  — correspondent Erin Moriarty reports on Saturday, April 22 at 9/8 on CBS and streaming on Paramount+.

On Monday, April 17, Crosley Green gave his final goodbyes to loved ones gathered at the 65-year-old grandfather's residence in Titusville, Florida. After two years of freedom, Green was ordered back to prison following a federal court's ruling to reinstate his conviction for a murder he says he did not commit. 

Green urged his supporters to be optimistic, but many anguished at the possibility of the man they affectionately call "Papa Green" spending the rest of his life behind bars.
