There is more to this than is being reported.

A simple question...how is it that YOUR name came up in the investigation? They didn’t just pick him up randomly off the street.

[Smellin Salt]

You’re kidding, right?

[nickcarraway]

You mean he really is guilty, or he was prosecuted for an ulterior motive?

[Secret Agent Man]

There are many instances of innocent people being framed by “witnesses” or “victims” or “wonderful cops”, and it often s just being in the vicinity and people looking for a scapegoat or patsy.

Is that some sort of sick joke?

I'm not familiar with the details of the case but I wouldn't put it past any cop or prosecutor to lie or to manufacture and withhold evidence. This is not to say they're all bad - I just wouldn't trust any of them.

That’s just how it happens.

I find the reporting on this to be awful.

Think investigators never make a mistake, and then don't compound a mistake by lying? Think what the FBI did to Richard Jewel.

Are you serious!?

within hours of the crime — and based on the vague account of one witness who said the killer looked somewhat like a young man she knew with the name Lamonte — Lamonte McIntyre was arrested, despite alibis from family members who swore he had spent the day at home.

The only other witness against him was a woman in the neighborhood, a relative of the victims, who later recanted her testimony and said that she lied in identifying McIntyre because she was coerced by the then lead detective in the case

Only five photos were included when normal police procedure is to use six. And three of the five people are related to Rosie McIntyre. Two of her sons and her nephew were all in the same lineup.

Rosie is Lamonte's mother and testified that she was coerced by Det. Golubski into providing sexual favors until she moved and changed her phone number.

Really? That makes it OK for them to wrongfully convict someone and steal 23 years of their life - because their name came up in an investigation and they became the easy-route-patsy for those wanting to chalk up a conviction?????

Incredible...
