Just imagine spending so many years in jail when you're innocent and nobody believes you. Sad sad sad.
And there’s prob still many more innocent victims out there in prison holding life sentences smh
Guilty until proven innocent .... bassackwards
in my country its innocent until proven guilty
Yeah well, cops ALWAYS take the easy target. They don't want to bother spending time doing the investigation.
"Because his innocence couldn't be proven". That's the biggest bunch of B.S.
sounds like amongus
For the first time in my life, I thought, “$18 million ain’t shit.”
Especially split btwn 3 people after tax maybe 2 million each
They Shuld Get As Much As Mega Millions Lottery Winners 50-350 million or Something Like That... Free Trips For LIFE.. IDK Something...
Same here...it ain’t
Damn
Wow
With a lot of these cases, you get the feeling the only reason they finally released these men was that they got to the age where they needed a lot of care and medical attention, and releasing them was just cheaper.
Very true unfortunately
I know they do that in uk prisons. If it's terminal,they put them in a hospice. I knew a girl in prison with cancer. She had been offered compassionate leave but chose to stay in prison as she had all her friends there and knew no one out of prison as she had spent 17 years in jail.
This is why I entered the criminal justice field! I want to help people who have endured such injustices. I cannot imagine losing decades of my life to wrongful imprisonment.

I can't even imagine being locked away for 60 years and then being freed into a world that is drastically different.
Ya that would be crazy
It's like being sent to the future.
It happens more often than you think. I spent 4 years in prison for a crime I didn't commit because of a dirty Baltimore City cop and, still to this day, nobody cares. I also spent 2 years in solitary confinement getting out of my cell for 15 minutes per week when I had a choice of a shower or a prepaid call that cost $10 for 5 minutes during which time you have to wear chains. All for someone elses dope in an alley that was 3 blocks away.

@@brokenwishbone422 wow.. I am so Sry that that happened to you!.. may God bless you hun.. each day is only more beautiful from here on out! 😉💜🙏👍✌️
I can’t imagine spending almost half of my life in prison for something I didn’t do that’s sad.
Fr I’m suing the hell outta erryone whole did me wrong and tryna get them all put in jail so they see what it’s like
Atomic Umber bet!
Prison definitely is not a great place to be! I did a five-year stent my first time and then a two-year stint, and a 1 year and 3 months sentence. Those days are long gone. I have an uncle that did 27 years straight for a murder charge. Needless to say things were different when he got out then they were when he went in.
*prepares hitman*
Yeah fuck all that mami I just had to come here and say you beautiful 😘
No amount of money can make up the time that guy lost in prison. Truly sad for that guy.
Maybe he was gay and had his best time of life in the showers.
I was actually in county jail with a man that had served over 40 in prison. The part of the video that said a law passed in 2016 that minors couldn't serve life without parole anymore is true. The man I was in jail with was Jason, he was almost 60 and got locked up at 16 and was being released because of that law. I played chess with him and asked him what was the first thing he was going to do when he gets out. He looked at me with a straight face and said," hug a tree". He was a very intelligent man. Never asked why he was in for, although I'm sure it was murder.

I may be wrong but from what I’ve heard is that people who spend long prison sentences like this and then get released all of a sudden don’t live long when they’re released because they’re so use to living in the inside.
People: COVID IS SO HARD I CAN’T STAY INSIDE
These guys: Am I a joke to you?
It's even worse for prisons with a general population. Prisoners are forced to be crowded in a high density population.
I've met someone like that in Florida, he was incarcerated since his early 20's and was released in his 60's/70's! He went back to the prison and said I want to come back home. All the family he had passed away so what was out here for him?
So heart breaking 💔

No amount of money, no amount of apologies, no amount of material possessions will make up for me being locked up for decades for a crime I know I didn't commit.
I wouldn't be able to move on knowing that I had just spent 65 straight years of my life in prison for somebody's else's "MISTAKE"

i agree they target black men ..that is so wrong look how many went to prison for nothing ..for many years most all black men..theh nee to be givdn smillion dollars for each year ..the justice system in the us stinks to much racism everywhere you go over there terrible
He deserves 18 trillion
What people don't realise is you get institutionalised when you serve a long prison sentence so to them, being released to our world can be just as frightening as if we were to be sentenced into their world.
New difficultly setting
It would be so hard to not go back after getting a felony and being imprisoned
There’s a special place in Hell for those involved in purposely stealing the lives of innocent people under the guise of justice.

Just because he was black
Where was this at?
That's crazy .. 98 years in prison for a small time robbery where no 1 was even injured .. Doesn't seem fair to me
Maybe the government needs to review all those cases that have been jailed for life in the 1950s/60s.
most of them are dead :/

Maybe! Naw govt most definitely do.
Otis Johnson’s story scares me. I had been stopped for the same exact reason in east Baltimore. I was probably like 12 or 13 and the officer explained there was a shooting nearby and that I fit the description: tall, black man wearing a tan jacket. I sat there for 10 min for him to realize that the man had a beard. The reason I was scared was because I has been sitting in front of my house for hours before I got up and ran into the office. I did NOT hear any gunshots or commotion. Very sus! I was just hoping that my child-like appearance would be a clear indication that i was not the suspect they needed.
I'm sorry that happened to you. You were just a little kid! That's so sad.
They let you run just because you were able to shave your beard in the meantime!? Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeit

Praise God for 👀 over me when I more into the world
I disagree that Otis Johnson was locked up in prison for 40 years because of wearing a tan jacket. The truth is that he was locked up for 40 years for wearing black skin

To sentence a teenager to life for simple robbery shows the evil nature of the judicial system. Many of the convicted were clearly innocent and overwhelmingly Afrikan/Black.

I've counted more whites being prosecuted but sloppy police work and egos put these men away unfairly. The whites and blacks featured were more than likely poor and uneducated or undesirable in societies eyes so they were railroaded into bogus convictions.

Canadian legal system shafted a 14 y/o on a murder charge. 24 years into a life without parole sentence, dna evidence proved his innocence and he was released.

@@blake1758 not everyone that gets released gets anything. A case just happened this week where a man was released after 40 years and got nothing. The law states that if DNA evidence overturns the conviction they will get compensation, but if its overturned due to witness testimony they get nothing.
the DOJ really needs to step up there game.... come on now, 64 years of prison, it honestly cant take 64 years to review a case
To be fair, releasing these people, when they are so old already, is really kinda cruel. Because as you pointed out, old people are treated worse than criminals these days. So "releasing" them, simply means taking away their housing, daily food, and free medical and dental services. Which is why the clever ones choose to stay inside.
That is crazy. No amount of money can make up for all that time spent in prison for a crime you didn't commit. I hope the policeman who cooerced the kid, gets life in prison.
The dislikes were made by prison inmates watching from prison
That 13 year old that later recanted should have been charged. Along with the cops who allegedly coerced him. And if he was on a school bus why did the other people on the bus never come forward?
How can that prisoner ever trust anyone after that? I reckon he doesn't even trust himself at all.

That guy Lema's case was a rollercoaster of lows and highs.
The fact they could throw a man in an insane asylum his entire life without a conviction is shocking. Basically, he was thrown in there and forgotten about with no due process.
