Wrongfully convicted man who spent 24 years in prison for Brooklyn murder committed while he was on

[wallyhopp]

What happens to prosecutors who goof up? Or judges who make terrible judgements? Is there no oversight committee? Don't we pay their wages?

From the judge who let a rapist go because he wouldnt fare well in jail, to THIS case here. Some sort of large scale advocacy group needs to shake things up and hold people accountable

A man who spent nearly 25 years in prison for a Brooklyn murder that took place while he was vacationing in Disney World

Jesus Christ. How do you **** this up?

 

[Nouss]

Hop on a flight from disney land to NYC then hop on a red eye back to disney land just to fly back to NYC the next day?

Man, what? :x

 

[ayzee]

This dude was wrongfully convicted and served 26 years. Amazing attitude.

 

[fontaine]

because documentary evidence was withheld, the prosecutor back then was able to convince a jury that Fleming — who had videos and photos from the Disney vacation— could have hopped on one of 53 flights, shoot dead Darryl Rush, 22, take a flight back and then return to Brooklyn again the next day.


How ridiculous is this??

I'm laughing at how bad this argument is, and it worked!!

Like... How can a sensible person read hear this and take it serious?

Who takes a vacation from a vacation to come home and kill someone, only to return the next day??!!

 

[ayzee]

Just a typical day in the United States Justice System.

And it pretty much ruined a dude's life.

And there won't be consequences.

Seems legit.

I know $ wont buy back his life, but will he be compensated for this?

Thats the problem...very little if anything happens to the people responsible for this type of bs..usually a story gets put out about it and everybody moves on

 

[freakydestroyer]

Imagine if he didnt go anywhere far away from home. there would be no proof.

He served a homicide sentence. Minus well let him murk 1 for free.

I hope they give him millions. So he doesn't have to work and can live the rest of his life to the fullest.

They'll prolly pay him like 100k a year.

Maaaan... Heard about this dude from Boston who got wrongfully convicted of murder. He served like 10-15 years or something when they freed him. This dude got killed like a month after he was released smh.

I'm sure the state will compensate him millions

Give him $25 Mil. One for every year he served. Untaxed.
