I thought it was Jesse Bradford that was the actor in this movie I can't remember but looking through IMDB I can't locate it so maybe had the actor wrong too.

Two guys in college a murder is committed - bradford ( or so i thought ) was jailed for the murder but he had it planned to be sent to jail the whole time you think he's innocent his room-mate had evidence that would free him but at the last second the evidence disappears.. it was him that did it but the way he set it all up he had evidence that would free him I recall a shoe being part of the deviance and a tape
