Innocence Project, Mid-Atlantic Innocence Project and Hogan Lovells US LLP Ask Virginia Appeals Court to Exonerate a Richmond Man Who Has Served Nearly 27 Years for Rapes He Didn’t Commit

He is still incarcerated.

Which is sad.... let's hope for a quick release! great post bud! thank you for the info!!

cuz the just liberty our founders held in such high regards, has been slowly replaced by orwellian tyrany.executed so well, we are actualy content to live this way.its no egypt, or iran, but it is what it is none the less.

I feel like ,someone is missing,the point,how did he get there,who where the players,then go get them.once that is done,they will be given him a check!!

we as the citizenry i think are all on the same page.but that point, that is being missed, is the very example of how far we have strayed in our view of what is right vs wrong in our process of functioning.

id like to think the fuckers who set this guy up to take the fall would get thier come uppance, but i doubt it.as a system that allows them to sell the future of an innocent man, is a system geared towards thier corrupt ends over justice.

he could end up getting a daily talk show on a major network, and still despite reminding us every day of this, they still wouldnt get caught.as the system is thier play thing.it is sold as our justice, but it is thier rube goldberg machine, that confuses us in function just enough to keep them free to continue.

Oh Freecrack, don't be such a pessimist. Its bad, the lack of real justice, but we can continue to share and point out the injustice and raise our children differently. The world does not even have a hundred years, of this bullshit, left to be exploited. We need to start a global justice system that deals with ALL human right violations. I like to think big and much better.

i can get behind that, but the differences between cultures, and the inherent nature of xenophobia means we must first create that perfect system before sharing it with anyone else.other wise it is just trading one flawed methodology for another one.and as democracy has shown, even though it is clearly better than say an autocracy, those who recognize it is also flawed will reject it to the death.in favor of self determination.

we need to keep going forward domesticaly to a point of perfection before we begin to share our methodology with other civilizations.with things such as our technology and medicine for instance, they are readily accepted as they are finished products that self prove thier worth.we need to get to that place with our human rights perspective too, otherwise what we offer will be rebuffed and create a sense of oppression.

You make some fine points! Laws, all laws need to be reviewed to make sure that a crime is actually being committed. Using drugs should not be criminal. Poisoning someone with drugs should be. Our system IS the driving force of madness that the world is rejecting because it has become almost completely hypocritical. Money buys Justice or freedom from justice and that is NOT just.

Great point, freecrack. What is a perfect system?

i can theorize as to what would be the markers of a perfect system, but damn if i have a clue what it actualy would be or how to get there.
maybe i have a bizzare view of us, but i think that is what we are as the "great experiment".the quest for a better tomorrow infinitely.until we reach perfection in governance.wich is probably unattainable, but still a worthy endevour.

when we have all of our domestic issues under control, then we can start sharing.as the burden of proof that wuld be upon us is inherently proven.until then we are just being dicks when supposing our way is better than any other.

I completely support your position on this :)

aww thats nice.cuz i think it has been a long long while since you and i have authenticaly agreed on anything lol.not that we are in constant disagreement, but its been a bit since we had a common shared view.
gotta love current some times.

It is nice that we agree. I enjoy intelligent discussions. Critical thinking and reasoning helps learn from one another. I find it annoying when people on current start personal attacks when their opinion is not accepted.

its cuz your a poopy head, so there :)

it happens on the heated topics but i like that aside from the trolls, we calm down and in theend respect one another mostly.i mean i only hate a couple of folks on here and would like to think only a few hate me as well.

So, why "a poopy head"?

cuz i wanted to devolve into name calling as a humoruos response to you acknowledgement of how counter productive it is.and i figured poopy head was a way to do it with out actualy offending, and it has a funny ring to it.
