Reparations for wrongfully convicted persons (especially 34 years) should be federal law.
The judge together with dectetives and prosecutors needs to prosecutors all are crap
Shame american criminal justice
Read the case…he did the crime. He had been convicted of the same crime multiple times before. The 400 years was to keep him locked away from civilized people.
12 states, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, Georgia, Kentucky, New Mexico, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, and Wyoming do NOT pay compensation to wrongfully convicted innocent inmates. Push your lawmakers to enact a Federal law to require ALL states pay compensation.
How many more innocent prisoners are languishing in Florida's prisons?
34 years = $340,000 the justice system should pay him 💯😡
Kamala Harris Americas 1st token VP, picked for "diversity" and "equity" issues, claims the US border is "SECURE"? Does she identify as a Misinformation Superspreader or a Traitor to the US Constitution? SHE IS BOTH.
Oh, gosh this man lost 34 yrs of his life for crime he did not even commit 😘
And, it was so powerful that he didn't even show any bitterness towards people who wrongfully convicted him
Justice system should take care of him rest of his life 🙏
This man deserves it
If there was no EVIDENCE, HOW did he spend 34 YEARS in the joint.?
Because he's a black man no wonder, put him in jail for so long 🙄🙄🙄!!!! If he's white he will released from jail long time ago!!!!! this is happening around the globe!!!! 🤦
How can they sentence him to 400 years in prison for robbery! When murderers and child rapists literally get nothing for their crimes but someone can get 400 years for robbery!? We dont even live 100yrs …whoever accused him and the judge should do time!
You're welcome..you are more than welcome my man! WELCOME HOME~WE ALL LOVE YOU BROTHER! So happy you are out breathing THE FREE AIR like our old expression goes. XOXO😉💜😎 #PrisonerANDHumanRights

Even if he was guilty 400 years for robbery is insane
The Land of the Free 🤡
Its not a perfect world good for him
Innocent of WHAT???
He looks just like his mama!! God bless your beautiful souls
Southern
I hope this guy gets compensation for his horrible life. Poor man.
❤
400 YEARS for robbery!!!! impossible!
Remember we're still slaves, in America, to those who can't remember where they come from. And the Most High will right the wrong done to his people. BLACK, WHITE, WHATEVER.
He needs to SUE
Praise the Lord❣️ Thank you, Jesus❣️
Of course it's Florida 😂. 400 years for innocent person, sounds about right.
