If true, she should pay a price, but the prosecutor/law enforcement people who suborned her perjury should pay an even higher one.
This isn’t a guy being released because modern technology has improved. The evidence at the time did not support the charge but proprietorial misconduct nailed him.
>> Neither the receipt nor the police letter had been provided to Fleming’s initial defense lawyer
What a crime that is. The meat of this man’s lifetime was taken from him.
cops and da ought to forfeit their pensions tov this guy and do some jail time for railroading him. all they cared about was finding someone to pin this on.
The prosecutor, the police investigators and the witness should all be jailed. For 25 years. And their assets should be forfeited to this poor bastard.
A guy was released from prison in Texas in 2011. DNA got him out it after 25 years, but the prosecutor, by that time a judge, lost his law license and spent a few days in jail. Like Nigong, he withheld evidence. Every case he was ever on, was reviewed by the courts.
How do we find out who the Prosecutor was?
My word .... How do these scumbags sleep at night knowing they railroaded an innocent guy for 25 years....
These are evil acts. I don’t care if they thought they were doing something useful for society. They deserve the harshest of punishments.
The poor soul. I hope someone opens a bank account for him AND his poor mother. That’s a long time to suffer from someone else’s badness.
Under the Law of Moses false testimony was punished by the penalty they tried to get the innocent person to suffer, up to and including the death penalty.
They didn’t have cops or prosecutors then, but I don’t see why we can’t apply the principle.
In (very) partial defense of the cops and prosecutors, they often believe (sometimes even accurately) that the person they’re railroading is a career criminal anyway, so what difference does it make if he is convicted of a crime he didn’t commit when he’s gotten away with dozens or hundreds of crimes?
Convicted on the word of one supposed witness? there is more to this than the news story tells. Did the jury consist of complete idiots? How about his defense attorney? There is so much to question about this it boggles the mind
