  2. This has been going on for ages. We can see clearly the system wrought with fraud in numerous cases of voting malfeasance dismissed out of hand by progressives and deep state judges.

  3. Poor man. And you know those twelve years of prison shortened his life big time. Shitty unhealthy food. Mental distress. No peace and quiet. Being around low and vicious rabble etc etc

  4. There should be an investigation conducted by the U. S. Supreme Court whenever this is discovered. Everyone involved in putting him in jail should serve the same amount of time he did

  6. Yes, what happened was a tragic mistake. But no, I don't think our current judicial system should be changed.
    I still believe in our system. Why was he convicted 12 yrs ago? Double murder? I seriously doubt it was a flimsy case.

    Wrongfully convicted, wrongfully evicted...yet the real conspirators are still taking up valuable oxygen on earth. Life in America seems overrated with all the suffering of the innocent.
