Texan declared innocent after 30 years in prison



















this is really scary and why im against the death penalty see this paragraph:


'On Aug. 4, 1978, an all-white Iowa jury convicted Harrington of first-degree murder. He was given a mandatory sentence of life without the possibility of parole, the maximum sentence in Iowa, a state that abolished the death penalty in 1965'

so many people want these harsh sentences handed out yet what happens when theyre found innocent and theyve been executed?

You know it has happened multiple times, what's just as scary is how the prosecutors built a flimsy case against him by enticing 'witness' with reward money and the promise to drop other charges against them unrelated to the crime, as well as suppress evidence pointing to a white assailant. IMO the prosecutor should serve out the remander of his sentance.
 






I totally agree on that point, the only thing that sending drug users to jail accomplishes is that they become more hardened criminals as they are initiated into the criminal underground. Marijuana should be legalized anyways that would save a huge chunk of money as well as choke off the bloodlines of the Mexican drug lords.

Goddamn. First cuntnpaste and now you? Well, as I told him, this was your best post ever. It is all down hill from here.
