@@markoklimpl249 That's life though people always feel bad more for women than men it's always been that way I'm shocked you still surprised by this...
Exactly. Even all that money that they get awarded is nothing compared to losing your youth, to things you could have done but were taken away the chance to do. That’s just sad, really.
How are they supposed to blend into normal life after having spent decades in prison??? Especially those of them who were only in the beginning of their life journeys??? This is insanely wrong and unfair. Money can’t bring back the years that were stolen from them((
Anyone who says that "You shouldn't be worried if you've got nothing to hide" simply don't know how the justice system works. NEVER say anything to the Police. Always ask for a lawyer.
Yup, and do this EVEN IF you are yourself a lawyer. DON'T SPEAK, that might sound counter intuitive to not speak for an innocent man, but this is the most clever thing you can do, don't speak and just ask for your lawyer.
Tell me about it , my ex got a Final restraining order against me with a bunch of lies .. later he drop it .. since we separated .. he is been trying to get restraining orders but I lawyer myself up every time .I got so much to lose with one of those on my record. ( he uses trying to get custody of my kids)
True. I have seen many videos of people being questioned by police without a lawyer being present. I learned every time a cop asks something,the smart answer should be " Lawyer".
9th Commandment: You Shall Not Bear False Witness. [people ignore the word of God but it's the only safety for mankind without being biased or prejudiced] if only.
A lot of the times they were pressured to do it, as indicated in the video...I just wonder how it happens that they come forward only that many years afterwards...I can somewhat understand police seeing bad guys go away so many times due to lack of evidence, and wanting to use every opportunity to prevent it - but most of these cases were about kids, 16-18 years old...What kind of person sends a 16yo to jail for e.g. 30 years based solely on single piece of forced evidence...
1 million compensation for 39 years of being wrongfully imprisoned and losing possibly 50% of your life! Absolutely disgusting! There are probably so many people who have died in prison for crimes they haven’t committed. Anybody who wrongfully presents a case as a witness and is proven of such should be doing a life in prison.
Agreed. Each time they stated the compensation the person got my reply was, "not enough". There is nothing that will bring back those 39 years, but suing the city, state or government for an amount that would take care of you for the rest of your life is what they should get.
by that point it should be enough to take away worries about money for the rest of your life apparently this came across wrong ik it wasn't a lot of money that's what i was saying im saying by the point where your in jail that long the amount of money you should get should be enough to take away any money related worries for the rest of your life
I know stories where people almost didn't get anything,or some change money,like 50 or 100k,for being in prison for over 20 years,wrongfully of course.
Just like our Savior...who was innocent. These stories break my heart. I seriously pray for these men that God can help them to move forward and for healing. I cannot imagine 😢 💔.
Imagine being 14 years old and arrested without any proof then having to serve 27 years in prison for something you did not do. That's 27 years lost. I feel so sorry for that man! I wish him the best!
Money does not buy ur freedom. Idc how much money they give me. Being convicted for something u didn’t do is BS and being behind them cells is miserable
I hope he was fired. He wrongfully put people in jail and even pressured someone into lying just so he can have some fame He better be in jail or upleast have a warrant for his arrest
How does it take someone 40 years to finally come forward to say that you falsely testified and almost sent a man to his death because of it? My guilt would have eaten me alive.
Same. But I expect most people probably never come forward at all. Louis scar-whatever falsely testified dozens of times and now he's enjoying a pampered retirement. I'm sure he will never apologize or admit wrongdoing.
I bet you that fear of death would cause someone to wait 40 years to admit they falsely testified. I am not saying that this is the case but perhaps since the witness was already threatened with death.
@@jonagreen7323 I mean he was a kid when he testified, he was probably shit scared of the detectives who forced him to testify. Saying he didn't have a conscience is a bit harsh.
Maybe because they get older and carrying that burden is no longer worth it. I can also imagine the consequences of lying under oath being one of the things they fear.
The detective who put the first two people in jail wrongly, also had another 8 people serving life who have been exonerated, he retired in 1999 with no charges ever , a frightening reality to how many other poor souls who are now innocence and spending their life behind bars and this is just one “ detective “ truly unforgivable
Do not worry my dear, he has the greatest and most powerful Judge ever to face and that is The Most High. He will wish that his existence never existed.
This is why even if you aren’t guilty ALWAYS ask for a lawyer. There are so many detectives that will convict people wrongfully just to close a case. My heart aches for these people
My Dad was pressurised by the police to give a false testimony against someone else. When he refused they arrested him instead. He spent 5 years in prison. Probably he would never come out as a normal citizen but since he was a Lawyer himself, he was finally able to fight his own case and prove innocence. Love u Dad ❤️

My dad was wrongfully accused of touching a child and later she admitted her mom told her to say it. It ruined our lives and was too late by than, the damage was done. Charges were obviously dropped but my dad became an alcoholic and died afterwards from the embarrassment and shame from the disgusting label she attempted to put on him. He was a good man who worked with disabled children, and rescued animals in his free time than rehomed them. I miss him dearly.
You deserve compensation on behalf of the poor man. Some people are simply so cruel in this society and it is always the kind ones who suffer from others wrongdoing.
My heart hurts for the man who spent over 4 decades in prison for NOTHING. He lost so many years, so many memories he couldn’t make. It’s just so sad and disgusting at the same time.
At that point if I’m not awarded millions of dollars per year and actually given it I would just kill myself because there’s no point in living after having those many years taken from you
So agree. There is no way that should ever happen to anyone, but I want to let you know that at the civil level in family law, attorneys and courts are raking in the dough and the legal system is designed for their benefit, not the people, as they can charge people a bill for it, and the feds provide for prison time. They can put away parents for contempt for as long as they like and every time they get out they find a reason to put them back in again, for nothing, judges faking outrage to control the narrative as the court case has no recording of speech or conduct, a new judge cannot correct orders of another, either, so stupid, and they have an office allowed rex parte contact with the judge about cases and case issues, but they will make deliberate false statements to protect the court and prevent an appelate court from reviewing the case or hearing a trial which in my case would be heard by the judge whom I would be seeking to challenge, as she was raised to that higher court, she was utterly corrupt in her conduct, and they don't need to set a trial and you can't get a jury, and especially when a parent has been falsely accused of parental alienation or false accusations for restraining orders, which abusers are able to get for absolute garbage to create an impression with the public, and to gain the upper hand in the case and isolate the children from the protective parent so the protective parent then has to pay $90. / hour here for supervised visitation and these arrangements are in favour of an abusive parent and his attorney while the innocent, protective parents are trying to protect their children from abuse. Children's narratives are often dismissed, also by CPS, claiming the same false narratives, aligning their narratives with the courts. The police too, favouring the more powerful or lawyered up parent, and it is said that the children have been coached, but it is the abuser who makes this accusation and the innocent parent is raked through the coals and loses everything. And often contact. Often the abuser can afford an attorney and the protective parent can't. I have known mothers who have brain cancer who were not allowed out and were never allowed to see their children again and they died of brain cancer in jail without actual charges other than contempt of court. My ex deliberately abused our children more severely so that I would have to say something. He had already tried to carbon monoxide poison us in two homes as he didn't want to pay support after he undermined and threatened every opportunity I ever had and the children's lives and well being if I tried anything. So I had to wait until I thought they were old enough and he was leading another life and wouldn't care if we left and instead it unleashed everything, but he menaced all the time unexpectedly, alao, that I would never be able to prove it or what he did to pets, also making them disappear. He is sadistic. My children and I lost everything he wanted us to except each other, so far. I realized late in the case that I did have two recordings about the abuse I had recorded much earlier and didn't know or remember what I had said on them, or realize the relevancy due to forgetting what I had naively stated. They saved my kids because on the day of the trial for custody he and his attorney retracted their request so it became a non-trial. In the mean time orders had neen made that caused me to lose our house and our children's safe home. I just want every one to know that the whole system is corrupted and cruel and inept and the whole system needs a painful overhaul, mostly because predators are running the show and designing the system with the support of ignorant flying monkeys who benefit but don't realize they are dealing with high level narcissists, sociopaths and psychopaths who are educated, intelligent and designed the system in their favour, not for the people. The same people sit on all the boards and make money influencing the system that way too. It all adds up and it concentrates their power and control and often undeserved prestige.
KARMA doesnt leave anyone. If u earn on bad ways, those money will eat you. If you take news of the people who forced such innocents to be convicts, u will see they are mostly miserable or dead
My neighbor was a Sergeant in the sheriff's department. He told me that the best detectives were nerds, not bullies. Scores of convictions have been tossed because cops browbeated confessions from innocent people. Scarcella is one of the worst examples of this.🤬
The saddest part about all of this, is there are MANY more innocent people rotting behind bars just like these people and they will never be set free. Heartbreaking. I can’t think of much worse happening. Edit: Daniel’s story is horrible. 16 years old, best and threatened to confess by a detective. Sickening.
@@deubie0211 like the youngest boy to be killed on drsth row? Innocent black kid, accused of murdering soms lil white girl. Whole town was racist so he got the electric chair. Even though there was no evidence he was even in the area. - George stinney
Worst part about these wrongful convictions is that even when proven innocent, you know there's going to be WAY too many people who still believe them to be guilty, or just treat them like a ex-convict all the same. Wrongful convictions harm people's lives WELL beyond the years they spent behind bars, and they deserve so much more justice than they ever get.
Agreed, and lets not forget about those who ended up sentenced to death for crimes they never did and even had nothing to do with any crimes, can't imagine how they felt getting set free after their convictions being overturned, I don't think it's the easiest thing to leave Death Row as a free man/woman...
It is not a victory when you are proven innocent and thusly freed when you have been after bars for many years. You have simply regained what is rightfully yours.
Even in the case someone has not been convicted, the fact you were accused will haunt you for life. There are cases in the United States where a person was held and released the next day, but their pictures were still all over the media and on the internet and the suspect would never be able to get a job again for life.
Scarcella never faced any jail time for these terrible injustices, this is outrageous. He should have had to have spent at the least the total amount of jail time that those wrongfully convicted under his shoddy, shady tactics had to. Plus some more for being a corrupt detective. So wrong that nothing happened to him after destroying the lives of those convicted and their friends and families.
@@ayasinx8797 how come he is not? Nobody out there looking for justice? How come always commenters talk sense, but when it comes to actually having common sense in the justice system there isnt any? He killed those people, they were young when they got convicted, now they are old, the detective is a murderer. Life in prison.
@Hold Your Breath Because the "good cops", especially in a city as corrupt as New York will never turn on one of their "brothers." The NYPD used to be a gang of their own. Extortion, lies, sexual assault, stealing, the NYPD was no better than the mafia until body cameras forced to clean up their act.
In Australia there was a case where an aboriginal man was accused of murder but at the time of the murder he was miles away in jail. They still found him guilty. It was years before he was released.
A 14 year old boy, spend 27 years trying to prove his innocent. Let those numbers add up. He spent almost 2/3rds of his life trying to prove he didn't do something. He's been fighting to prove his innocent for almost twice as long as he had existed at the time of his arrest. There is no way in hell that man has any idea how to lead a normal life. They ruined his life. And there's nothing they can do to make it up to him.
I honestly wanted to give him a hug watching that clip. He got beat into confessing at the age of 14. Who does that to a kid? He knew the kid didn't do it, so he used extreme force, beatings and threats to get a confession. When an insecure school bully joins the police force to become big boy cop.
They wrongly sentenced a woman to LIFE in prison without parole based on ONE testimony while most of the rapists walk free with dozens of testimonies and solid proof. I have no words.
The first man absolutely broke my heart💔 He doesn’t just look innocent, he looks like a good man, a really good and kind human being. It’s so sad that he lost those years of his life. I hope he is happy and in peace.
So because the first guy looks like a good man that somehow makes it more so sad in comparison to the 8 other innocent people who lost sevral years of their lives wrongfully? I think every case shown here is equally sad, no one deserves to be locked up for a crime they didn't commit
1 million for 49 years in jail and being put on death row while being innocent is an insult to that man. The state should offer him 100 million and this man should not have to file a lawsuit to get it.
it depends on the state and local district. There should be a federal mandate for this. Considering in Tennessee you have to appeal to the governor for a pardon to receive the maximum $1 mill in compensation but people are so fixated with state rights that I doubt that will ever happen
And it's just wrong, any every one who convicts someone wrongfully should take their place once the truth is found out, more prevention must be done, we only get one life and innocent people have theirs wasted over racial issues, discrimination, blatant carelessness and pure error. It will never be okay.
Certain states even if it's 100 percent proven afterwards you are innocent, if the proof wasn't brought forward during trial or first appeal than it never matters. I'm not sure theactual time line but it blows my mind that a corrupt DA or judge can literally keep an innocent person in prison for life with no legal repercussions at all
It did happen. It happened to me. 2 years incarcerated for nothing. I lost my business, my home, and my car and life. I was accused of something horrific and asked continuously for trial, rejected every single time. They finally dismissed the case and the judge told me I could go home now. I told him , " what home?" Your court system destroyed my entire life. The judicial system is so deranged and corrupt. My attorney and the Texas innocence project, got me released.
@@louisavondart9178 You’re probably right. Just giving them a small benefit of the doubt but I’m sure it’s mostly corruption. I have heard of many cases get overturned because of blatant misconduct and there’s a stipulation that the defendant cannot sue the state for wrongdoing. It’s insane
I can't even imagine what these people, and so many others who were wrongfully imprisoned, have been through. Just imagine the mental pain and anguish of having decades of your life robbed and your freedom stripped away over a crime you didn't commit. It's so unfair. You can see the pain in their eyes. They can never get those years back. I don't think I would be strong enough to endure something like that
I was wrongfully imprisoned for less than a year and I am still living with severe PTSD. I won my trial not guilty in 30 mins. The judicial system needs a work over. Edit forgot to mention I was facing 2 life sentences. The prosecutor nor the police did any work and I was completely and totally innocent taken from my family and placed behind bars awaiting trial. They were offering me pleas like 22 years and shit. You can't imagine that choice to go to trial. You all will never understand.
You have no idea how corrupt the cops, prosecutors, and judges are. They are all in it together, they all conspire together. What di you have? A public defender who also works for the same government that all of them work for. Maybe one out of a 100 judges is a good, decent, honest, and not corrupt judge. It may be impossible for you to find that judge or may take you ten-twenty-thirty or 40 years to find that judge. The judges are told what to do by the prosecutor and the police and the political higher ups. To cover their butts. It is only through a lot of mass media news coverage that anybody can possibly have a chance. Or take it to federal court, the US attorney, and the FBI. You can always file a Writ of Habeus Corpus in a US district court. I bet you that in all these cases, and all others like them, that the corrupt cops that did what they did and the lying perjuring witnesses were never arrested, charged, or prosecuted. They never are. All a cover up.
i was once accused of raping 5 girls in my class , i was 15 at that time and i had to serve 6 years to life in prison . the girls who accused me confessed and said they falsely accused me because they didn’t like how i looked . im 28 now with a family but it still haunts me till this day that someone is this cruel to take years of someones life over the dumbest thing .
@@otapodoeseb1448 His is also so heartbreaking. To be so young but spend so many years of your life behind bars for something you didn’t do is unimaginable for me.
The contrast between these people just doing some innocent activity, VS them all of a sudden being locked up for decades for murder, is insane. Every time I go to a restaurant like McDonald's I am completely relaxed and free of worry because I know how innocent the activity is. But to think your life could be completely destroyed, even then, is just wild.
The fact that detectives/police care more about making it seem to the public that they've caught the right person rather than actually catching the right person is just insane
@@fatimateresa19 every state, but obviously in certain states investigators, judges, and juries are more likely to have racial biases. But I’d say it is a problem in every state just with varying levels of severity
And that's why we have the BAU they actually know what to look for when it comes to the guilty look, you can't hide body language from them they look for that as evidence as well as proving if you did it or not and if you say you did the crime or confessed to it and they know you didn't do it they'll be like no you didn't your free to go and actually work to catch the real killer
@@fatimateresa19 every state, you can take an example here in Brazil Like, tons of police men tries to catch someone innocent (on purpose btw), and let’s just say that most of the time they try to make the person “admit” their crimes (that they didn’t do it) by pressure, physical and verbal abuse (and there’s moments that they, the police, just get someone and go to a corner and beat them up)
I’m heartbroken for the first man. He was an innocent child put behind bars and lost the best years of his life!! If they didn’t punish the Detective and put him in prison for 27 years then that’s bullshit!!! I pray that man gets enough money to live comfortably for the rest of his life!!!♥️

the detective has done this with multiple other ppl, all the settlement cases that have been going on because of this detective total over 100million$ of compensation, but sadly the detective cant be charged for anything cuz its too long ago, statute of limitations protect him from getting charged

The police could, but that's not really their main job. Crime scene investigators are the main group that does the job for finding evidence and collecting them. The most common reason an innocent gets wrongfully convicted is by false witness, evidence, and offical misconduct. You don't really rely everything on a mere police officer.
I'm quite sure that there are many more innocent people rotting in prison. Every case should be reviewed once per year. Modern science can disprove so many false convictions and must be used to protect the innocent.

The fact that someone got wrongfully accused isn’t the horrible part of it. Because sadly mistakes are unavoidable and happen all the time. However, that fact that someone got accused of a crime he didn’t commit simply because the detective felt like it is disgusting and a horrible abuse of power.
Sometimes false convictions are not mistakes. In some cases the person is a political pawn with a destroyed life. This life is seen as unimportant. Mistakes are forgivable. Cases where we dine as you suffer in pain and abject humiliation and degradation are deplorable, un fathomable and disgusting.
It's beyond me that "witnesses" can take 39 years to admit that they were coerced or pressured to give a false testimony. I'm sure plenty never admit at all and just knowingly and willingly let innocent people die in prison. People suck so much.
I cannot imagine what being in jail for a crime you didn't commit is like, but doing 40 years because the police decided you were the one they were going to arrest, instead of doing the job they are paid quite handsomely to do, the cops that put these people in jail should learn how doing that much time feels like, they are the true criminals.
In my country, this case never happen. Its not because our cops are very good than any cops in the world, its because our citizens always giving a hands to help.

I can't imagine the absolute hell that these people and so many others like them have been put through. No amount of money and apologies can EVER make up for what has been done to them, for the time that they have lost. They can never get back what was taken from them. Everyone involved in convicting these people should face extreme punishment.
Yes. All those who convicted him/them, the judges, the police etc, should be brought to trial. They should be judged now for how they handled the cases.
Well said. This is exactly how I feel. Those police officers and DA should be publicly flogged for each year the person spent in prison. They should have to feel the pain in response to the pain they caused the person who was wrongfully convicted.
Prosecutors and cops should be put in jail that practice right now because they’re even worse than back then. It’s so corrupt and incentivized with federal funding that they do stings and raids on innocent people just because it’s an easy payout. There are thousands of innocent people in prison right now.
The last time I was summoned to jury duty, something really seemed wrong. They told us up front that we would not be allowed to see or listen to a single shred of evidence and that we would be required to accept the arresting officer's testimony as fact. I remember feeling this sense of forced acceptance. They kept asking us if we trust law enforcement's words as facts. And I kept thinking to myself, well, I might trust some officer's words, but how do I know this officer that I'm being told to trust is even trustworthy? It was madness. I was one of the only jurors that wasn't a bootlicker. I kept asking how I could possibly decide within a shadow of a doubt that the man sitting before me was guilty if I wasn't even allowed to see/hear physical evidence. The prosecution kept using this semi-Socratic analogy about evidence being like shadows in a cave -- it was absolute nonsense. They painted me like I was some extremist who didn't trust authority and even questioned if I practiced a form of religion that forbade me from "passing judgement" and I answered with a question of my own, "You mean like Christianity?" At first I just wanted out of jury duty, but the sheer audacity of that courtroom made me adamant that if I was not on the jury, an innocent man might go to jail. They dismissed me, of course, and I still think about how absolutely disappointed in the justice system that courtroom made me feel. I have no faith in the system after what I heard and saw in that day...
That is insane and as much as I try to not be controversial there is no way I could just take one persons word like that. Good for you following you instincts and I love the comment about “you mean like Christianity?”. Absolutely insane how people get so blinded.
@@apicket3 I'm not lying this is literally what they told us. It's fine if you don't believe me. I don't need to convince everyone. I'm just telling the truth, for you to believe or not believe. This was my experience when I went to jury duty for a criminal trial.
@@apicket3 You understand that what you said is just as easily dismissed? Easier, in fact, because as weak as anecdotal is, you don't even bother with giving your reasoning.
There are certain people, who come as false witnesses and present their testimony in the courts for money in the form of an upfront payment. Also, there are people who all together take the blame on themselves and go to jail in the place of the real accused. They are called "Suppleant's" in the language of the lawyers.
That what I especially thought of the man who spent 39 years behind bars. How did that man knowing what he did go that long without trying to help that man. Was fear? IDK.
Sometimes their identification is used against them. For example a woman pointed out John Bunn as a guy she knew from her building, not as the murderer, but they ran with it.
What makes me just as mad as someone doing time for being intentionally wrongly convicted is knowing the true criminal is still put there. How in the hell do these detectives even sleep at night is beyond me!!
the true criminal normally gets caught later on an unrelated crime. But yes if humans just commit one offense and no others all those criminals would be scott free for good.
In their heads they've convinced themselves that they did the crime, "their gut" (their biases) tell them they did it, they just don't have the proof to take them down so they manufacturer it. It's fucked up, an innocent person is hurt and the victim never gets justice just because someone thought themselves a judge, jury, and executioner.
The frightening thing about this is how easily this could happen to any of us. I can personally attest to the fact of how the lies of one terrible person can get you charged and imprisoned. God bless these innocent people and all those innocents rotting behind bars.
If I were wrongfully imprisoned for half my life as an innocent, I would come out of jail as a rage driven criminal knowing that all my life was wasted by human scum.
Exactly, probably same here. If I’m gonna be treated like a criminal for the rest of my life for something I didn’t do, I might as well have a legitimate reason to be called one.
I wonder if double jeopardy applies in this case? Imagine knowing you could walk up to that crooked cop who stole your life & blow him away! I hope that dirty LEO never stops looking over his shoulder.
This has always been one of my greatest fears. Going to prison for a crime you didn't commit. Not just because I'm going to be in a place I shouldn't be and my life is ruined, but also because that means whoever did do the crime, gets off completely free.
I mean , the person who framed them should go to prison for the same time + millions in compensation + weekly skinning of each limbs and private organs and slashing with blades everyday by the falsely accused
My dream of settling in America is over, i might travel and tourist but I'm not living forever in a country who treat their own country people this way
@@Northstander not a lot in my opinion. I worked in a UK prison for 10 years and almost none of the inmates claimed to be innocent. Those that did I believed but even then they were long term criminals and just didn't do that particular crime. One man's girlfriend ordered stuff with a stolen credit card and had it delivered to their address and ran when the police turned up and they didn't believe him when he blamed her.
The fact that this detective Scarcella made the state pay 110$ million just in overturned murder cases is crazy!!!!!!!!! 110$ million went to 14 different defendants, including a woman who died a few years after her release, a man who was just 14 when he was arrested on murder charges and a man whose settlement went to his mother because he died in prison at age 37. One man, let out of prison after 23 years, had a severe heart attack just two days later.
These cases are gut wrenching. I can only imagine the daily pain and suffering of these innocent citizens. Decades!! Decades!! Unbelievable. Where are the consequences for those who wrongfully convicted these people?!?!
Yeah, seems if they were found innocent then the prosecutors should be guilty by default or at least investigated with extreme prejudice, especially where malice or malpractice is found.
@@MassiveBrainTrauma She had years to fess up. There’s no excuse for that. She took someone’s life away and would’ve had her victim locked up longer if it weren’t for someone else making it known.
Even during the moments I thought I done crying for them, I started right back up again. THEY HAD THEIR LIVES TAKEN AWAY FROM THEM. Our Justice system is beyond flawed.
I’m studying forensic science and I wish that I could save people who are wrongfully charged for crimes they haven’t committed. It really hurts me to know someone was punished for the action they haven’t committed and the court room took years to prove their innocence

I've recently started tossing around the possibility of donating myself to a body farm when I die. Not for sure, but it's now on the list of options. It's such important research, and there's no other way to truly collect that data. It does make me wince, though it shouldn't because when we're dead, and it's not our physical body that mattered. But it's on the table. Soon technology will catch up and we'll probably be able to make 3D models out of lab-grown human tissue, or maybe even create a little forensic android beetles to crawl over and in a body to find cause of death, but in the meantime, body farms are an important resource.
Man lost 40 years of his life, theres nothing at all that could make up for that. The people that force these confessions should be imprisoned for life.
As a Dutch citizen it's bizar how many wrongfully convicted are in prison in the USA. What shocks me the most is how long it takes to get such convictions overturned and how fraudulent law enforcers get away with it. It really amazes me how patient the victims of the justice system remain.
You also have to realize the size of the US is a factor. We have 30 times the people in the US. Not to mention crime in a lot of these places is ungodly and it gets very difficult to find who corrupt and who isn't due to that. Sadly we have the opposite problem now in these cities were crime is just flat out allowed as long as you vote a certain way...
@ Veronique Yeh because in the Netherlands that never happens??? lol look up Schiedammer park moord, for instance that man was in jail for years even though the OM did know DNA was proving him innocent, at the Dutch forensic institute he was actualy internaly used as a example/joke. (and there are other cases Like Lucia de B.) Then there is the Dutch trial system which is highly administrative and in favour of the prosecution with no jury just a few state apointed judges. so yeh as a Dutchman I find this far from bizar.
Wow, I am 63 years old and don't mind admitting that this video brought tears to my eyes. As a teen I was accused and charged with something I did not do, and believe it or not the good cop bad cop thing is real. Thankfully I managed to prove my innocence but so many others do not. I filed a complaint and the "bad cop" was told to give me a hand written apology on a police letterhead, was put on a desk for 6 months and had to undergo "retraining". Unfortunately a lawsuit against police in my country is not possible. I found out later that the cop and his friends had vowed to "put me away" for anything they could so I left town.
I am so so sorry you had to go through all that..😢 the police officers involved should be held accountable as it’s so maddening that some officers think their actions are above the law!! Wish you luck…take care 😁😁

Daniel Viegas is my cousin’s son. I remember we use to babysit him when he was little. This was a huge case in El Paso. I moved away when I got married, so I only knew about the case from my family. Glory to God that he was found not guilty.🙏🏻
No amount of money could compensate the amount of time these people lost. I just feel very sad knowing that it still continues nowadays and thousands of people convicted for crimes they did not commit are living their lives inside prisons. Helpless and miserable.
Hello yes I'd like to purchase my childhood? And adulthood with family pack included... Can't they do that even for 6 million? They hand it over like that's even so I tought they could
I’ve had someone try to have me convicted of a crime I didn’t commit. I know what it’s like to be pressured by police to say I did it, even when there was evidence that I didn’t. I got death threats, harassed, and went through a ton of stress because someone with a large ego and mental health issues just didn’t like me. I cannot even fathom being the type of person who would be okay with trying to ruin an innocent persons life.
My ex boyfriends 17 year old daughter accused me of stealing her fur coat.I am an animal rights activist and i would never even touch a fur coat . She lied and said that she saw me take it but she had no witnesses . She calked the cops weeks later when i broke up with her boyfriend. If she saw me taking it why didnt she call the cops ASAP The stupid cops believed a 17 year old and had absolutely no proof of anything but her lies..I hate cops
I've been accused of several "crimes" in my life of 66 years,, and though the crime was never proven and I received no incarceration,,, the "TRAIL" follows you through life,,, all you have to do is open the internet,, and bam,,,,, did he / she really do that,, or are they really innocent,, guess what 90% of the peeps say immediately??? guess....
My heart really goes out to these people as I also understand how they feel. I was 12 years old and my mom was a banker at a local bank when she got arrested for stealing a huge amount of money(which she didn't). And she stayed there for 21 months . I was taking care of my siblings and every night I prayed until she finally got freed. I was so depressed not being able to see my mom I even attempted suicide by overdose but my little brother stopped me.
I’m so sorry. God bless, may you always feel that God is close to you, and here for you. I am sorry that you had to go through that, and I’m glad she was freed.❤️❤️✝️
$1m? That's absolutely ridiculous for 39+ years wrongfully served. And for those saying it isn't, its not just about the money the person could have made, the reputation damage, the time lost with family and friends, the mental baggage thag comes with, opportunities missed, and the act in itself of wrongfully convicting an innocent man.
I’ve always said being wrongfully convicted of a crime is one of the top worst things that could happen to someone. I’m in awe of their strength and perseverance.
That first guy hit me hard. They didn’t put the “wrong man” away, they put the wrong KID away. Damn shame. Bless him and his family

Anyone who says that "You shouldn't be worried if you've got nothing to hide" simply don't know how the justice system works. NEVER say anything to the Police. Always ask for a lawyer.
Yup, and do this EVEN IF you are yourself a lawyer. DON'T SPEAK, that might sound counter intuitive to not speak for an innocent man, but this is the most clever thing you can do, don't speak and just ask for your lawyer.
Tell me about it , my ex got a Final restraining order against me with a bunch of lies .. later he drop it .. since we separated .. he is been trying to get restraining orders but I lawyer myself up every time .I got so much to lose with one of those on my record.

Justice system ? It's a police state system.
True. I have seen many videos of people being questioned by police without a lawyer being present. I learned every time a cop asks something,the smart answer should be " Lawyer".
@@kathyramos2924 So sorry to hear that. I wish you all the best.
I think that every witness that provided a false testimony should be put into prison.
9th Commandment: You Shall Not Bear False Witness. [people ignore the word of God but it's the only safety for mankind without being biased or prejudiced] if only.
Agree
A lot of the times they were pressured to do it, as indicated in the video...I just wonder how it happens that they come forward only that many years afterwards...I can somewhat understand police seeing bad guys go away so many times due to lack of evidence, and wanting to use every opportunity to prevent it - but most of these cases were about kids, 16-18 years old...What kind of person sends a 16yo to jail for e.g. 30 years based solely on single piece of forced evidence...
I agree one hundred percent
Amen
1 million compensation for 39 years of being wrongfully imprisoned and losing possibly 50% of your life! Absolutely disgusting! There are probably so many people who have died in prison for crimes they haven’t committed. Anybody who wrongfully presents a case as a witness and is proven of such should be doing a life in prison.
Totally agree, should be 1 million for every year wrongly served!
Agreed. Each time they stated the compensation the person got my reply was, "not enough". There is nothing that will bring back those 39 years, but suing the city, state or government for an amount that would take care of you for the rest of your life is what they should get.
by that point it should be enough to take away worries about money for the rest of your life
apparently this came across wrong ik it wasn't a lot of money that's what i was saying im saying by the point where your in jail that long the amount of money you should get should be enough to take away any money related worries for the rest of your life
I know stories where people almost didn't get anything,or some change money,like 50 or 100k,for being in prison for over 20 years,wrongfully of course.
You can probably make 1 million in 10 years by working a regular job. Its so disappointing
I can’t think of anything worse than been accused and punished for something you didn’t do.

How does it take someone 40 years to finally come forward to say that you falsely testified and almost sent a man to his death because of it? My guilt would have eaten me alive.
Same. But I expect most people probably never come forward at all. Louis scar-whatever falsely testified dozens of times and now he's enjoying a pampered retirement. I'm sure he will never apologize or admit wrongdoing.
You have to have a conscience to feel that guilt though, I don't know if people who falsely testify have much of one sadly.
I bet you that fear of death would cause someone to wait 40 years to admit they falsely testified. I am not saying that this is the case but perhaps since the witness was already threatened with death.
@@jonagreen7323 I mean he was a kid when he testified, he was probably shit scared of the detectives who forced him to testify. Saying he didn't have a conscience is a bit harsh.

So agree. There is no way that should ever happen to anyone, but I want to let you know that at the civil level in family law, attorneys and courts are raking in the dough and the legal system is designed for their benefit, not the people, as they can charge people a bill for it, and the feds provide for prison time. They can put away parents for contempt for as long as they like and every time they get out they find a reason to put them back in again, for nothing, judges faking outrage to control the narrative as the court case has no recording of speech or conduct, a new judge cannot correct orders of another, either, so stupid, and they have an office allowed rex parte contact with the judge about cases and case issues, but they will make deliberate false statements to protect the court and prevent an appelate court from reviewing the case or hearing a trial which in my case would be heard by the judge whom I would be seeking to challenge, as she was raised to that higher court, she was utterly corrupt in her conduct, and they don't need to set a trial and you can't get a jury, and especially when a parent has been falsely accused of parental alienation or false accusations for restraining orders, which abusers are able to get for absolute garbage to create an impression with the public, and to gain the upper hand in the case and isolate the children from the protective parent so the protective parent then has to pay $90. / hour here for supervised visitation and these arrangements are in favour of an abusive parent and his attorney while the innocent, protective parents are trying to protect their children from abuse. Children's narratives are often dismissed, also by CPS, claiming the same false narratives, aligning their narratives with the courts. The police too, favouring the more powerful or lawyered up parent, and it is said that the children have been coached, but it is the abuser who makes this accusation and the innocent parent is raked through the coals and loses everything. And often contact. Often the abuser can afford an attorney and the protective parent can't. I have known mothers who have brain cancer who were not allowed out and were never allowed to see their children again and they died of brain cancer in jail without actual charges other than contempt of court. My ex deliberately abused our children more severely so that I would have to say something. He had already tried to carbon monoxide poison us in two homes as he didn't want to pay support after he undermined and threatened every opportunity I ever had and the children's lives and well being if I tried anything. So I had to wait until I thought they were old enough and he was leading another life and wouldn't care if we left and instead it unleashed everything, but he menaced all the time unexpectedly, alao, that I would never be able to prove it or what he did to pets, also making them disappear. He is sadistic. My children and I lost everything he wanted us to except each other, so far. I realized late in the case that I did have two recordings about the abuse I had recorded much earlier and didn't know or remember what I had said on them, or realize the relevancy due to forgetting what I had naively stated. They saved my kids because on the day of the trial for custody he and his attorney retracted their request so it became a non-trial. In the mean time orders had neen made that caused me to lose our house and our children's safe home. I just want every one to know that the whole system is corrupted and cruel and inept and the whole system needs a painful overhaul, mostly because predators are running the show and designing the system with the support of ignorant flying monkeys who benefit but don't realize they are dealing with high level narcissists, sociopaths and psychopaths who are educated, intelligent and designed the system in their favour, not for the people. The same people sit on all the boards and make money influencing the system that way too. It all adds up and it concentrates their power and control and often undeserved prestige.

The saddest part about all of this, is there are MANY more innocent people rotting behind bars just like these people and they will never be set free. Heartbreaking. I can’t think of much worse happening.
Edit: Daniel’s story is horrible. 16 years old, best and threatened to confess by a detective. Sickening.
Yup, Brendan Dassey is one of them. Look it up!
What about those who have been put to death also.
@@deubie0211 like the youngest boy to be killed on drsth row? Innocent black kid, accused of murdering soms lil white girl. Whole town was racist so he got the electric chair. Even though there was no evidence he was even in the area. - George stinney
Many on death row. And sadly many who sat on the electric chair.
And I bet you people support cops.... I don't really care for cops. It's just a JOB, like any other job. You get paid for it.
Worst part about these wrongful convictions is that even when proven innocent, you know there's going to be WAY too many people who still believe them to be guilty, or just treat them like a ex-convict all the same.
Wrongful convictions harm people's lives WELL beyond the years they spent behind bars, and they deserve so much more justice than they ever get.
Agreed, and lets not forget about those who ended up sentenced to death for crimes they never did and even had nothing to do with any crimes, can't imagine how they felt getting set free after their convictions being overturned, I don't think it's the easiest thing to leave Death Row as a free man/woman...
I felt bad for Lobotomy, the last video
It is not a victory when you are proven innocent and thusly freed when you have been after bars for many years.
You have simply regained what is rightfully yours.
Yes
Even in the case someone has not been convicted, the fact you were accused will haunt you for life. There are cases in the United States where a person was held and released the next day, but their pictures were still all over the media and on the internet and the suspect would never be able to get a job again for life.
Scarcella never faced any jail time for these terrible injustices, this is outrageous. He should have had to have spent at the least the total amount of jail time that those wrongfully convicted under his shoddy, shady tactics had to. Plus some more for being a corrupt detective. So wrong that nothing happened to him after destroying the lives of those convicted and their friends and families.
Def. should of been in prison for the rest of his miserable life, that's for sure.
@@ayasinx8797 how come he is not? Nobody out there looking for justice? How come always commenters talk sense, but when it comes to actually having common sense in the justice system there isnt any? He killed those people, they were young when they got convicted, now they are old, the detective is a murderer. Life in prison.
@Hold Your Breath Because the "good cops", especially in a city as corrupt as New York will never turn on one of their "brothers." The NYPD used to be a gang of their own. Extortion, lies, sexual assault, stealing, the NYPD was no better than the mafia until body cameras forced to clean up their act.
You serious he never faced any repercussions for his actions, that's disgusting!
@@zada4a there’s really nothing we can but to vote for people who can do something about it and make a change in the system.
In Australia there was a case where an aboriginal man was accused of murder but at the time of the murder he was miles away in jail. They still found him guilty. It was years before he was released.
A 14 year old boy, spend 27 years trying to prove his innocent. Let those numbers add up.
He spent almost 2/3rds of his life trying to prove he didn't do something. He's been fighting to prove his innocent for almost twice as long as he had existed at the time of his arrest.
There is no way in hell that man has any idea how to lead a normal life.
They ruined his life. And there's nothing they can do to make it up to him.
Absolutely nothing! This hurts so much knowing fully well that there are thousands of inmates who were wrongfully convicted.
And those 2/3rds were supposed to be the best years of his life
I honestly wanted to give him a hug watching that clip. He got beat into confessing at the age of 14. Who does that to a kid?
He knew the kid didn't do it, so he used extreme force, beatings and threats to get a confession.
When an insecure school bully joins the police force to become big boy cop.
It makes my blood boil honestly. Poor kid probably crying himself to sleep all those years while those horrible judges were probably laughing.

1 million for 49 years in jail and being put on death row while being innocent is an insult to that man. The state should offer him 100 million and this man should not have to file a lawsuit to get it.

Because he is black
That man should be given enough money to never work again in his life.
I guess the compensation payment must be depending on the colour of your skin too. I think that in itself is criminal too!
it depends on the state and local district. There should be a federal mandate for this. Considering in Tennessee you have to appeal to the governor for a pardon to receive the maximum $1 mill in compensation but people are so fixated with state rights that I doubt that will ever happen
Corrupt prosecutors and sloppy police work. This is terrifying because it could happen to anybody
And it's just wrong, any every one who convicts someone wrongfully should take their place once the truth is found out, more prevention must be done, we only get one life and innocent people have theirs wasted over racial issues, discrimination, blatant carelessness and pure error. It will never be okay.
Sloppy police work? No, Corrupt is a better description.
Certain states even if it's 100 percent proven afterwards you are innocent, if the proof wasn't brought forward during trial or first appeal than it never matters. I'm not sure theactual time line but it blows my mind that a corrupt DA or judge can literally keep an innocent person in prison for life with no legal repercussions at all
It did happen. It happened to me. 2 years incarcerated for nothing. I lost my business, my home, and my car and life. I was accused of something horrific and asked continuously for trial, rejected every single time. They finally dismissed the case and the judge told me I could go home now. I told him , " what home?" Your court system destroyed my entire life. The judicial system is so deranged and corrupt. My attorney and the Texas innocence project, got me released.
@@louisavondart9178 You’re probably right. Just giving them a small benefit of the doubt but I’m sure it’s mostly corruption. I have heard of many cases get overturned because of blatant misconduct and there’s a stipulation that the defendant cannot sue the state for wrongdoing. It’s insane
I don’t know how people can live while an innocent person is in prison because they wrongfully testified against them
Because they are nothing people
I can't even imagine what these people, and so many others who were wrongfully imprisoned, have been through. Just imagine the mental pain and anguish of having decades of your life robbed and your freedom stripped away over a crime you didn't commit. It's so unfair. You can see the pain in their eyes. They can never get those years back. I don't think I would be strong enough to endure something like that
I was wrongfully imprisoned for less than a year and I am still living with severe PTSD. I won my trial not guilty in 30 mins. The judicial system needs a work over. Edit forgot to mention I was facing 2 life sentences. The prosecutor nor the police did any work and I was completely and totally innocent taken from my family and placed behind bars awaiting trial. They were offering me pleas like 22 years and shit. You can't imagine that choice to go to trial. You all will never understand.

How about the people wrongfully sentenced to death? At least these people got their freedom back with some minor economic compensation.
@@autodidact7127 sorry about your experience, I hope you and your family stay safe and get a better life that you deserve.....
You have no idea how corrupt the cops, prosecutors, and judges are. They are all in it together, they all conspire together. What di you have? A public defender who also works for the same government that all of them work for. Maybe one out of a 100 judges is a good, decent, honest, and not corrupt judge. It may be impossible for you to find that judge or may take you ten-twenty-thirty or 40 years to find that judge. The judges are told what to do by the prosecutor and the police and the political higher ups. To cover their butts. It is only through a lot of mass media news coverage that anybody can possibly have a chance. Or take it to federal court, the US attorney, and the FBI. You can always file a Writ of Habeus Corpus in a US district court. I bet you that in all these cases, and all others like them, that the corrupt cops that did what they did and the lying perjuring witnesses were never arrested, charged, or prosecuted. They never are. All a cover up.

Every time I go to a restaurant like McDonald's I am completely relaxed and free of worry because I know how innocent the activity is. But to think your life could be completely destroyed, even then, is just wild.
The fact that detectives/police care more about making it seem to the public that they've caught the right person rather than actually catching the right person is just insane

@@fatimateresa19 every state, but obviously in certain states investigators, judges, and juries are more likely to have racial biases. But I’d say it is a problem in every state just with varying levels of severity
And that's why we have the BAU they actually know what to look for when it comes to the guilty look, you can't hide body language from them they look for that as evidence as well as proving if you did it or not and if you say you did the crime or confessed to it and they know you didn't do it they'll be like no you didn't your free to go and actually work to catch the real killer
@@fatimateresa19 every state, you can take an example here in Brazil

I’m heartbroken for the first man. He was an innocent child put behind bars and lost the best years of his life!! If they didn’t punish the Detective and put him in prison for 27 years then that’s bullshit!!! I pray that man gets enough money to live comfortably for the rest of his life!!!♥️

I remember feeling this sense of forced acceptance. They kept asking us if we trust law enforcement's words as facts. And I kept thinking to myself, well, I might trust some officer's words, but how do I know this officer that I'm being told to trust is even trustworthy? It was madness. I was one of the only jurors that wasn't a bootlicker. I kept asking how I could possibly decide within a shadow of a doubt that the man sitting before me was guilty if I wasn't even allowed to see/hear physical evidence. The prosecution kept using this semi-Socratic analogy about evidence being like shadows in a cave -- it was absolute nonsense. They painted me like I was some extremist who didn't trust authority and even questioned if I practiced a form of religion that forbade me from "passing judgement" and I answered with a question of my own, "You mean like Christianity?" At first I just wanted out of jury duty, but the sheer audacity of that courtroom made me adamant that if I was not on the jury, an innocent man might go to jail. They dismissed me, of course, and I still think about how absolutely disappointed in the justice system that courtroom made me feel. I have no faith in the system after what I heard and saw in that day...
That is insane and as much as I try to not be controversial there is no way I could just take one persons word like that. Good for you following you instincts and I love the comment about “you mean like Christianity?”. Absolutely insane how people get so blinded.
You are lying. They did not tell you this.
What state/city?
@@apicket3 I'm not lying this is literally what they told us. It's fine if you don't believe me. I don't need to convince everyone. I'm just telling the truth, for you to believe or not believe. This was my experience when I went to jury duty for a criminal trial.
@@apicket3 You understand that what you said is just as easily dismissed? Easier, in fact, because as weak as anecdotal is, you don't even bother with giving your reasoning.
These cases are so sad and scary. Forced to testify, forced to confess. All the best guys and thank you to those people fighting for the innocent.
Shameful of those "detectives" and false witnesses, big shame on them.
May God curses and retribution be upon them, and may God avenge the innocent.
@@downtownline7839 A lot of false witnesses were also threatened/manipulated/blackmailed to confess wrongly
@@downtownline7839 you really don't know the mental torture most false witnesses go through, do you?
These are happy stories! God bless them!❤
How can these so called witnesses who lied, and put innocent people behind bars, live with themselves?! 😡
There are certain people, who come as false witnesses and present their testimony in the courts for money in the form of an upfront payment.
Also, there are people who all together take the blame on themselves and go to jail in the place of the real accused. They are called "Suppleant's" in the language of the lawyers.
Easy, we live in a fallen world and some are servants of evil.
That what I especially thought of the man who spent 39 years behind bars. How did that man knowing what he did go that long without trying to help that man. Was fear? IDK.
Those people should be tossed in prison for ruining someone's life.
Sometimes their identification is used against them. For example a woman pointed out John Bunn as a guy she knew from her building, not as the murderer, but they ran with it.
What makes me just as mad as someone doing time for being intentionally wrongly convicted is knowing the true criminal is still put there. How in the hell do these detectives even sleep at night is beyond me!!
the true criminal normally gets caught later on an unrelated crime. But yes if humans just commit one offense and no others all those criminals would be scott free for good.
@@mizz308 yes! Those poor boys smh
In their heads they've convinced themselves that they did the crime, "their gut" (their biases) tell them they did it, they just don't have the proof to take them down so they manufacturer it. It's fucked up, an innocent person is hurt and the victim never gets justice just because someone thought themselves a judge, jury, and executioner.
What are the odds that the detectives actually committed the crime
@@Nuadin totally agree
Imagine how many others are in prison and or have died in prison that are actually innocent. It could happen to ANY of us.
The innocent ones that died in jail, now that is haunting, God rest their souls.
If you live in the US with that horrible legal system, yes. Other countries are not that absurd and, on top of that, have maximum sentences.
Yeah in America is not innocent until proven guilty it's guilty until proven innocent
About 20,000
Very true ❤️
Imagine waiting 16 years to test the DNA .....
The frightening thing about this is how easily this could happen to any of us. I can personally attest to the fact of how the lies of one terrible person can get you charged and imprisoned. God bless these innocent people and all those innocents rotting behind bars.
That’s why U need to stay away from people stay to ur self
If I were wrongfully imprisoned for half my life as an innocent, I would come out of jail as a rage driven criminal knowing that all my life was wasted by human scum.
Exactly, probably same here. If I’m gonna be treated like a criminal for the rest of my life for something I didn’t do, I might as well have a legitimate reason to be called one.
Well I'm sorry hear that God have mercy soul of innocent for you guys and anyone who is innocent
oh yes best believe im finding scarcellas ass and making sure his bloodline ends lol
I wonder if double jeopardy applies in this case? Imagine knowing you could walk up to that crooked cop who stole your life & blow him away! I hope that dirty LEO never stops looking over his shoulder.
Same here
This has always been one of my greatest fears. Going to prison for a crime you didn't commit. Not just because I'm going to be in a place I shouldn't be and my life is ruined, but also because that means whoever did do the crime, gets off completely free.
I mean , the person who framed them should go to prison for the same time + millions in compensation + weekly skinning of each limbs and private organs and slashing with blades everyday by the falsely accused
My dream of settling in America is over, i might travel and tourist but I'm not living forever in a country who treat their own country people this way
@@Northstander not a lot in my opinion. I worked in a UK prison for 10 years and almost none of the inmates claimed to be innocent. Those that did I believed but even then they were long term criminals and just didn't do that particular crime. One man's girlfriend ordered stuff with a stolen credit card and had it delivered to their address and ran when the police turned up and they didn't believe him when he blamed her.
The fact that this detective Scarcella made the state pay 110$ million just in overturned murder cases is crazy!!!!!!!!!
110$ million went to 14 different defendants, including a woman who died a few years after her release, a man who was just 14 when he was arrested on murder charges and a man whose settlement went to his mother because he died in prison at age 37. One man, let out of prison after 23 years, had a severe heart attack just two days later.
These cases are gut wrenching. I can only imagine the daily pain and suffering of these innocent citizens. Decades!! Decades!! Unbelievable. Where are the consequences for those who wrongfully convicted these people?!?!
Yeah, seems if they were found innocent then the prosecutors should be guilty by default or at least investigated with extreme prejudice, especially where malice or malpractice is found.
@@cliftontaylor7570 Investigated for sure along with the judge and investigators.
The only consequence is getting raped in jail. That is men's lives. We are unbelievable privileged.
Thank god Britain does not have the death penalty. As there r 2 many mistakes. Jesus christ.
Please buy me a hamburger, and we’ll eat it together. 🙂
That woman who claimed the other confessed to her and was proven to be a pathological liar deserves jail time. What happened to her?
It's a condition. Be more inclusive.
@@MassiveBrainTrauma her lie wrongfully sent someone to jail for 17 years. She needs to be sentenced
@@htquez6540 She obviously is a net negative to society. She needs to be removed, one way or another.
@@htquez6540
You should respect her journey.
@@MassiveBrainTrauma She had years to fess up. There’s no excuse for that. She took someone’s life away and would’ve had her victim locked up longer if it weren’t for someone else making it known.
Imagine being free for 40 years and living with the knowledge that another man is in prison all that time because you were a damn coward.
Even during the moments I thought I done crying for them, I started right back up again. THEY HAD THEIR LIVES TAKEN AWAY FROM THEM. Our Justice system is beyond flawed.
Yes, I'm convinced many more innocent people are in prison right now or even received death penalty
@@elisa.maria0 Yes! 🥺
At least the justice system puts that person on trail cause here in Lebanon it's a disaster I hope we get rid of these corrupt government

@@hassanawdi3793 yes our countries are trash abusers don’t get punished or anything and we suffer all our life
I’m studying forensic science and I wish that I could save people who are wrongfully charged for crimes they haven’t committed. It really hurts me to know someone was punished for the action they haven’t committed and the court room took years to prove their innocence

@@dreddj.9451 Yea :(
Still we should do what we can at the very least :)
I've recently started tossing around the possibility of donating myself to a body farm when I die. Not for sure, but it's now on the list of options. It's such important research, and there's no other way to truly collect that data. It does make me wince, though it shouldn't because when we're dead, and it's not our physical body that mattered. But it's on the table.
Soon technology will catch up and we'll probably be able to make 3D models out of lab-grown human tissue, or maybe even create a little forensic android beetles to crawl over and in a body to find cause of death, but in the meantime, body farms are an important resource.
@@camez2345 Yep. It does makes me wince as well so I’m not sure yet but it’s an option
Man lost 40 years of his life, theres nothing at all that could make up for that. The people that force these confessions should be imprisoned for life.
Witnesses who are involved in wrongly prosecuted people should be sued or serve time. They kept the truth do 27 years!
As a Dutch citizen it's bizar how many wrongfully convicted are in prison in the USA. What shocks me the most is how long it takes to get such convictions overturned and how fraudulent law enforcers get away with it. It really amazes me how patient the victims of the justice system remain.
You also have to realize the size of the US is a factor. We have 30 times the people in the US. Not to mention crime in a lot of these places is ungodly and it gets very difficult to find who corrupt and who isn't due to that. Sadly we have the opposite problem now in these cities were crime is just flat out allowed as long as you vote a certain way...
@@goldenhate6649 I know. Isn't it beautiful? Should be a wake-up call for those who plan on moving to the US long-term.
As a Swiss, I can only agree - and be happy not to live in the USA.
@ Veronique Yeh because in the Netherlands that never happens??? lol look up Schiedammer park moord, for instance that man was in jail for years even though the OM did know DNA was proving him innocent, at the Dutch forensic institute he was actualy internaly used as a example/joke. (and there are other cases Like Lucia de B.) Then there is the Dutch trial system which is highly administrative and in favour of the prosecution with no jury just a few state apointed judges. so yeh as a Dutchman I find this far from bizar.
@@Bertranddeghaul that's not what I meant. In Netherlands it does happen as well but not at such large scale as in the USA.
Wow, I am 63 years old and don't mind admitting that this video brought tears to my eyes.
As a teen I was accused and charged with something I did not do, and believe it or not the good cop bad cop thing is real.
Thankfully I managed to prove my innocence but so many others do not.
I filed a complaint and the "bad cop" was told to give me a hand written apology on a police letterhead, was put on a desk for 6 months and had to undergo "retraining". Unfortunately a lawsuit against police in my country is not possible.
I found out later that the cop and his friends had vowed to "put me away" for anything they could so I left town.
Just awful. So sorry you went through all that.
That is so sad.
🤗🤗🤗
I am so so sorry you had to go through all that..😢 the police officers involved should be held accountable as it’s so maddening that some officers think their actions are above the law!! Wish you luck…take care 😁😁

No amount of money could compensate the amount of time these people lost. I just feel very sad knowing that it still continues nowadays and thousands of people convicted for crimes they did not commit are living their lives inside prisons. Helpless and miserable.
Hello yes I'd like to purchase my childhood? And adulthood with family pack included...
Can't they do that even for 6 million? They hand it over like that's even so I tought they could
I’ve had someone try to have me convicted of a crime I didn’t commit. I know what it’s like to be pressured by police to say I did it, even when there was evidence that I didn’t. I got death threats, harassed, and went through a ton of stress because someone with a large ego and mental health issues just didn’t like me. I cannot even fathom being the type of person who would be okay with trying to ruin an innocent persons life.
My ex boyfriends 17 year old daughter accused me of stealing her fur coat.I am an animal rights activist and i would never even touch a fur coat . She lied and said that she saw me take it but she had no witnesses . She calked the cops weeks later when i broke up with her boyfriend. If she saw me taking it why didnt she call the cops ASAP
The stupid cops believed a 17 year old and had absolutely no proof of anything but her lies..I hate cops
I've been accused of several "crimes" in my life of 66 years,, and though the crime was never proven and I received no incarceration,,, the "TRAIL" follows you through life,,, all you have to do is open the internet,, and bam,,,,, did he / she really do that,, or are they really innocent,, guess what 90% of the peeps say immediately??? guess....
I'm so sorry you had to go through that.Hope you're doing good now.
I'm so sorry 😢
My heart really goes out to these people as I also understand how they feel. I was 12 years old and my mom was a banker at a local bank when she got arrested for stealing a huge amount of money(which she didn't). And she stayed there for 21 months . I was taking care of my siblings and every night I prayed until she finally got freed.
I was so depressed not being able to see my mom I even attempted suicide by overdose but my little brother stopped me.
I’m so sorry. God bless, may you always feel that God is close to you, and here for you. I am sorry that you had to go through that, and I’m glad she was freed.❤️❤️✝️

Imagine how many people are still innocent but behind the bars because no more investigation was done after. SO UNFAIR!!
$1m? That's absolutely ridiculous for 39+ years wrongfully served. And for those saying it isn't, its not just about the money the person could have made, the reputation damage, the time lost with family and friends, the mental baggage thag comes with, opportunities missed, and the act in itself of wrongfully convicting an innocent man.
Totally agree! Even if they paid him $1M for every year that he served it still wouldn’t compensate for the suffering he endured! Shameful!
