I would have forgiven me him but I would never trust him .he took four yrs of your life and he is only sorry because he got caught.We forgive too easily.
@PVTA NEGRA Just becuz you claim to be black doesn't make you RIGHT! 🤨 Word. This is a clear case of racial disparity by the judicial system... nothing new about that. Becuz it's a proven, documented & historical fact ..... black people are treated more harshly by the judicial system. I say this and I'm NOT black 🤨 So there! 😠
that shows a total lack of ambition - lets just say this guy has done enough and now it is down to everyone else to dismantle a justice system that is institutionally fecked up, corrupt and of course racist..
I'm sorry, I'm all for forgiveness and all that noise. But that officer stole this man's life. And the only reason that he is sorry is that he got caught being dirty.
The cop got a job out of jail, but not the black man. That's why he was at the nonprofit - right? So the dirty cop could resume wage-earning, the innocent black man could not. 'Merica....
He has a name, it's Jameel. I don't think you are giving his intelligence enough credit. They cowrote the book, both making money and public speaking together. The power of forgiveness is hugh 🙏🤗
I hate stories like this. While I am happy that the Jameel seems to have found peace, it burns me up that black people are always expected to forgive injustice. They also highlight this story like it is far-fetched. The fact that a cop can even manipulate the system in this way scares the crap out of me.
Thats why Jesus said its hard for rich people to see the kingdom. Money, power and such corrupt people. But also jesus taught us to forgive one another, just like our father forgives us our tresspasses. This is the Way.
i think that malcom X would have forgiven anyone who admitted to their crime.. but while continuing to advocate any means necessary to overthrow a justice system that is institutionally fecked up, corrupt and of course racist - together with most of the rest of the military industrial complex.
If he's really interested in reconciliation (with the public), he shouldn't double down. He was justified in his mind until he came to know the victim in person. Well, how did the drugs get into the car? With the benefit of hindsight, we now know many cops plant drugs on victims. Plus he served 18 months on a separate drug issue.
@@ajunahenry9307 no he wasnt justified in his mind the guy switched up his story. First the guy said he wanted his police score to go up whether it meant putting a innocent guy to jail. You literally commented on a guys comment that is basically my comment. You do have a good point with the drugs thing I wonder what happened
@@smoothwaffle8047 right, he's still lying (possibly to improve his PR). The main factual gap here is that: 1. He admits sending an innocent man to jail (that's a postive) 2. He doesn't confess planting drugs on him (because he can't be innocent if he indeed had drugs). 3. Anyhow, it's work in progress. Hope he completely comes clean in the future. Or maybe he's (truely repentant but..) afraid of felony charges if he publicly confessed planting drugs.
I noticed that. First, he said that he lied on him because he wasn't going to let any of this stop him from being the top cop and was willing to lie and used this innocent black man to advance his career. However, his story changed when he came to the show. I see no genuine remorse whatsoever. I feel sorry for the black man.
@@ErinMarieHogan who wrote the lie on the report? The cop. Why did he say he lied? According to his own words, to advance his career. You said, he didn't lie at first and that he wrote it later on the report. So that makes it even worst because he had a chance to think and do the right thing which in this case not give a falsified evidence to stop the unjust conviction. If we're willing to be part of the solution for this kind of inhumane acts, then we must call it out for what it is. The cop lied on purpose for his own advantages and as a result three years of this innocent man's life was wasted in prison.
what I don't like is that meghan kelly spent years on Fox making the black man look horrible for her then base. now she covers the other side. SHE SHOULD APOLOGIZE!
Megyn Kelly is still a white supremacist, she knows deep down inside that other white supremacist like these kinds of stories and that's why she covers this, white supremacist love a Petty black person like this guy on this show.
denise salt - That's because she was on FAUX News. During thus interview the same thought was pacing thru my mind. OF COURSE their experience wouldnt have been featured on that wretched news media outlet because it doesn't fit their narrative.
Ur crazy if you think news and television anchors control the narrative of the show. They are just actors. You really think CNN and MSNBC cares about people? They never report the overwhelming black on black crimes and how the black neighbourhoods are drug infested cause of the lack of police stations there. All of them sold the public justifying the Iraq war. They killed osama but gave us photoshopped pictures of him smiling with a bullet in his head. All news channels are either republican or democrat, why can’t there be unbiased news channels with no agenda?
bottom line is no one or very few are genuinely wicked deep down - just that far too many are weak and too willing to fit into or profit from a justice system that is institutionally fecked up, corrupt and of course racist..
Same here and I wouldn't been so forgiving because that's one of the biggest downfalls of the black race imo because suing him would be making him pay for his evil wicked ways. Forgiveness is good and all but definitely not in this case and the other thousands of jacked up situations out just like this here too
He said it. He forgave him for himself. He didn’t like what the hate was doing to him. We are all different in the way we handle things. Don’t we want Whites to understand that we are not all the same?
This has to be the most naive black dude ever. That cop isn’t repentant because he found out what he did was wrong. He is friends with you now because he was kicked out of the force and he’s got nothing to lose. How he doesn’t see this is beyond me.
I've read the book and met both Jameel and Andrew. They are both amazing genuine people. I wouldn't say after reading the book that "redemption" came easy. Andrew had to work hard to build all the trust that he lost. When Andrew was convicted and arrested, the story went big in our community (I live in St. Joseph, the town across from Benton Harbour). People were mad, and they had every right to be so. Andrew spent his ttime. As he said once he got out, he started going to church. God was working on both of the men. God had developed them enough that when they met, Jameel was able to let it go for the moment. Later they worked together and forgave each other. They both wrote a bbook and Andrew now works for a company that helps at-risk youth. Once a week at my High School Andrew comes and hands out McDonald's for free to kids. I truly believe he has turned his life around, and I can see the fruits of it.
Yeah unfortunately this I believe is one of the biggest downfalls of the black race because this cop really needs to get sued for every penny that he has and then some. I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him because after all this is the same guy that false accused him for something he did not even do and he served 3 years in prison hat he can never get back either smh
so your going to think all police officers lie on their reports. how does that make you different than the police officer who thinks all black people are criminals?
Captcha Neon of course there is... but the definition of white privilege is the consequences would be VASTLY different for anyone of a minority race. Dnt even waste your time arguing that fact.
Derekand Du *I think that black people are obsessed with their skin color to the point they believe everything is "white privilege". My people have a bone to pick with the whites too but we don't. As for what I can and cannot argue, you don't get to decide that.*
Hating somebody is easy, forgiving them is hard. I'm not gonna lie I doubt I could've forgiven this dude, but for this man to set the example to his son, that's a whole different level of taking control.
im sorry but that is just not right...why are they turning this situation into something funny and the crowd is laughing. that white guy should go back and spend three years in prison
i think that it is ok to laugh and celebrate a relatively happy ending.. but the real issue is the whole justice system that is institutionally fecked up, corrupt and of course racist..
We must forgive, it is written in the BIBLE. The last will become first one day in Heaven. JESUS was treated so unfair, but the Son of God died on the Cross for each and every one of us. May God continue to Bless the 2 men lives. And always remember GOD. LOVES US ALL SO VERY MUCH😘
It's upsetting how easily redemption has come for this ex-cop, and how this is being celebrated on Megyn Kelly. While it is hard to put into words why this isn't a feel-good story for me, it's not. I respect their friendship, I honor Jameel's (and Andrew's) experience, but am not interested in their book.
Redemption is the wrong word. Redemption is a thing GOD ALONE does. No human can redeem another or him/herself. Forgiveness is another thing altogether.
Because you’ll make that narcissistic cop richer but you’ll also make Jameel, who is just as bad for making him richer and causing him to normalize this police practice, richer.
I've read the book and met both Jameel and Andrew. They are both amazing genuine people. I wouldn't say after reading the book that "redemption" came easy.

Jameel should have written the book alone. The cop coo co-opted into the friendships to + Not get sued + Profit from Jameel's trauma as much as Jameel + Ensure he has some input into the narrative + Ensure it sounds like a feel good story or redemption and not a racial police injustice story.
Yikes... did you see Collins talk over McGee when Megyn asked about the reaction from the black community? Collins may have good intentions, but I still think he needs to work on his ego. Dear Mr. Collins, please don't speak over Mr. McGee.
I noticed that too. I don't think he has good intentions. I think he is using the "friendship" as PR for his image. He is a really dark and sadistic person. I feel so bad for the innocent man.
I feel like hes a narcissist. He is now getting attention and recognition because of the strength of the black man, if the black man did not act with dignity on their first meet after prison, the white man would not be going out of his way to apologise.
There are not as many crooked cops as you think. About 1% of all law enforcement officers are crooked. They put a bad reputation on all law enforcement officers.
but it is up to jameel not us. they are doing good work the two of them,they give lectures. forgiveness is not about outside parties its about the involved parties
sometimes things happen and it makes nosense and the out come makes nosense. leave them alone and let them work it out. jameel us a goid person, but that does not mean he is weak, because in order to forgive you would have to be so strong. andrew was a mess up person at that time , but i also feel he is embarrassed by his past actions. leave the guys alone and let them work it out. they are cool with each other😊
Besides possession of drugs, did the cop get sentenced for the false allegations and lying in official records? If not, what message goes out to other cops who, knowingly or unknowingly, operate the same?
modlinger32 , well said. I couldn't agree more. When you say it's sickening you're right. I feel like I could literally be sick after watching this mess.
On the plus side the white cop is admitting to corruption and possible profiling " he looked like a drug dealer " admitting that things like this happen.
Being soft and weak does not make you a good person. This Black man comes off to me as weaker than a Lamb and as a Black man, I would never claim that he's a better man than me. That's some of our problems as Black men, thinking there's some kind of virtue in forgiving people who are trying to destroy us.
So spit on the oath you swore to uphold and steal at least 3 years of a man's life and not drink a drop of meaningful justice? huh...so that's how it works.
How about Andrew goes to jail for perjury/falsification of documents on maximum sentence allowed by law and when he's released, then we'll have this little parade.
Just last yrs this woman was on Fox talking about this kind of stuff don't happen! Remember that DL Hugley interview? She needs to go sit down somewhere!
Then this black man should have refused to be friends with this white cop and to appear on her show. So blame him not Kelly. If he had done those things, she would have no story.
You lie,I will hold it against you even in my grave.Forget forgiveness,this fool wouldn’t have blinked an eye if he hadn’t been busted for drug possession and his career ended
thats how you know something greater was involved here. usually people change as a result of something pivotal happening in there life. ask anyone who came off drugs why they came of drugs. sin is real. living in sin is destructive. something has to happen inside to trigger that. besides not everyone who goes to prison comes out reformed. so its clear he felt some kind of way inwardly that warranted a change in his life.
Paul Muturi So what you're saying is God has to ruin a black man's life take him away from his son ruin his prospects of making legitimate money to reform a dirty white cop? I'm trying to understand why it has to be God that makes an innocent man go to prison for no other reason it was no other way he can reform that white man no bad dreams and nothing that did not involve anybody else the only way you can make this happen this to make this man go to prison?
Runconna he said this on the show as well. He admitted he knew Jameel wasnt guilty after his prints came back clean. He said he just didnt care. He felt that he was guilty of something, even if he wasnt the right guy in this case. Basically, he showed his racism.
I'm talking about the initial arrest (poor phrasing in my first comment). He admitted in another interview that he knew Jameel wasn't the suspect at first contact, but didn't care, as long as he got an arrest. The guy is a terrible human.
This story truly gives me faith ! Jameel you truly are a BIG BIG MAN ! I can't even imagine what it took to forgive someone who took so much from you. You truly are an inspiration, and have inspired me ! Thank you
I would have to see Jesus face to face 3 times to help me forgive this guy. There are many more liars officers out there ready to lie about everything.
It's just another sad story. Check out wrongful conviction by Jason Flom. Free podcast on iheart radio for more story's like this. Very sad "bc he looked like a drug dealer "
This has been happening for years. Sadddddd. We are Convicted because we look Guilty(Black). Many Black men have died in Prison waiting for Some Cop to Tell the Truth. Glad this One worked out.
"And then its like a ...miracle" Megyn Kelly. How about: "And then it's ...justice". America, wake up. This kind of thing happens more than we know. I hope Jameel got some kind of settlement after wrongfully spending 3 years in prison.
Singer i agree 80 percent. But i do believe there are a few good white cops as well. I have experienced them. And experienced evil ones. But i cant say that every white cop is evil.
Mary Preston I am a big supporter of members of law enforcement that follow rules and the law. Unfortunately we have too many crooked ones that ruin it for the good and ethical ones.
I believe everyone deserves a second chance at life even the cop because he admitted to what he did and that speaks volume it really does how many people do you know would come clean to something cause I haven’t met many I would trust the Ex-Cop more than I would trust the people I’ve met through my life and I don’t hate those people either.
Joe T why? It’s the black man’s fault for being friends with the cop who imprisoned him and CHOOSING to appear on her show. It’s HIS FAULT, not Kelly’s.
@@unknownunknowns - So Naiz she got fired last month over the blackface Halloween costume sh*t. A true Trump- butt-kisser. Even FOX doesn't want her back. But she will be paid the full 69m$ for the 3 years contract. Not bad hey...
This brought tears to my eyes bcuz it's such a common story for people of color🥺😔 However, I commend this brother for his strength and will to carry on after everything he lost @for something he was innocent of. Just keep all of us lifted in prayer and pray corporately for all the other atrocious, unjust, horrible untold stories yet to be told (if ever told) worldwide out there.
Michigan has no Wrongful conviction compensation statutes. Jameel most likely did not get any compensation for being in prison for 3 years. The book deal maybe a way of getting him money. I hope Andrew, The Bad Cop, did not get any residuals from the book.
I remember their story they were working in a coffee shop together a few years back when I first heard their story. I’m glad to see them both still standing strong 💪🏽
He’s a liar, he’s literally using the man 😡
Who’s watching this in 2020 especially now “BlackLivesMatter”
Me
Mee
Meee
🤚🏾
👍
Whatever! That cop knew this man was innocent!,,
SuperSasha1969 100%
He did
He admits it, he knows. That’s why he admits he was very self centered and all about him
Did u watch the video lol he admitted to it
Just imagine how many black men are in chains just coz a white cop thought they were guilty
To many!!! 😢😢💔
How many are in prison and they knew there innocent
Or just said so without even believing it
I would have forgiven me him but I would never trust him .he took four yrs of your life and he is only sorry because he got caught.We forgive too easily.
...that's how they become ...top cops
look at the different sentences they got, that speaks volumes
Independence Boyd I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING!!!!
White privilege of course!
Independence Boyd Depends on the type of drugs they were arrested for.
@Michael Harley true
@PVTA NEGRA
Just becuz you claim to be black doesn't make you RIGHT! 🤨
Word.
This is a clear case of racial disparity by the judicial system... nothing new about that.
Becuz it's a proven, documented & historical fact ..... black people are treated more harshly by the judicial system.
I say this and I'm NOT black 🤨
So there! 😠
He’s still trying to Justify himself 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️😒😒
I got that too
This cop should donate his portion of the proceeds to a program that frees those who are wrongfully imprisoned.
ChiliContestWinner and now he is trying to write a book on his crime to make money. He is not sorry.
Mary Preston And that black man is also helping him out. So you really should be blaming the black man for doing so.
that shows a total lack of ambition - lets just say this guy has done enough and now it is down to everyone else to dismantle a justice system that is institutionally fecked up, corrupt and of course racist..
he should go back to the police station...hand himself in and confess. Then beg to be arrested and serve 10 years.
Black man with no drugs gets 3years cop with drugs gets 18 months perfect example of the system being broken
I'm sorry, I'm all for forgiveness and all that noise. But that officer stole this man's life. And the only reason that he is sorry is that he got caught being dirty.
The cop got a job out of jail, but not the black man. That's why he was at the nonprofit - right? So the dirty cop could resume wage-earning, the innocent black man could not. 'Merica....
Facts!!
13&B Digital House exactly he would have never came forward if he wasn't caught
13&B Digital House He got caught being his natural self.
Then you need to tell that black man not to be friends with him so Kelly wouldn’t have a story.
Wahoo. My question is: why didn't the FBI intervened and stop him from going to jail? Because the FBI knew he was locked up unjustly.
My point exactly.
This is so wrong on so many levels
Because many of these agents have similar mindsets.
......systemic racism......
This the system.
I think the ex-cop is still egocentric and enjoying being "famous". I don't believe him.
aShi JustLetMeFly
Lol, so true. I was just about to say that.
aShi JustLetMeFly right
Rotten
I really don't believe this guy.
So very true..

I just finished reading the book.wow! God really worked to help them both heal.
He has a name, it's Jameel. I don't think you are giving his intelligence enough credit. They cowrote the book, both making money and public speaking together. The power of forgiveness is hugh 🙏🤗
WTF that guy should be in prison for falsifying a report sending a man to prison for nothing.
blastman8888 he white ...never gonab happen
He was in prison?
Hiasl1998 for drug charges
This dude should be investigated more.
I feel as if he’s done a lot of wrong especially when he said he was walking around trying to find people he did wrong to apologize like really 🤔
agreed, if he did it once he probably did it more, at the very least cannot be trusted to not have.
He was addicted to himself. He was addicted to his addicted false ego. He is a crooked man, not just a crooked cop.
Jojo Jo was and still is.
Right and he forgot to say addicted to drugs, he’s still in denial
He still seems to be.
thats impossible.....
People change, grow and learn I can respect both of them
Friends???? Boy bye!!! He’s only your friend to make money of you! I’m sooo mad 😡
That has always been our downfall we are so forgiving..
It’s sick
I hate stories like this. While I am happy that the Jameel seems to have found peace, it burns me up that black people are always expected to forgive injustice. They also highlight this story like it is far-fetched. The fact that a cop can even manipulate the system in this way scares the crap out of me.

We must forgive, it is written in the BIBLE. The last will become first one day in Heaven. JESUS was treated so unfair, but the Son of God died on the Cross for each and every one of us. May God continue to Bless the 2 men lives. And always remember GOD. LOVES US ALL SO VERY MUCH😘
They forgve is done!!!!!!!!!!
@@cassaundradawson1410 screw the Bible
Sorry you made this man lose 3 years off his sons life and I wouldn't forgive him
How many other people did you frame Officer? How many that never got Released?
Like he said one mans word can wreck an entire mans life...it wasn't his first i'm sure...remember he wanted to be top cop
Im sorry Id never forgive him. Im not that big of a person.
You wouldn't have to be "big", you would have to be STUPID.
Zeyna Nd it's olright i understand.......
Zeyna Nd I agree with you. Jameel is a much better person then I would ever claim to be.
Forgiveness is not for the person you forgive but for yourself.
Well forgive is one thing, but to becomes friends no way, I like friends who have never done me wrong for their own benefit.
4:28 The girl to the right behind McGee’s shoulder has the perfect reaction to this lying cop’s BS. I have zero sympathy for him.
😂
It's upsetting how easily redemption has come for this ex-cop, and how this is being celebrated on Megyn Kelly. While it is hard to put into words why this isn't a feel-good story for me, it's not. I respect their friendship, I honor Jameel's (and Andrew's) experience, but am not interested in their book.
Redemption is the wrong word. Redemption is a thing GOD ALONE does. No human can redeem another or him/herself.
Forgiveness is another thing altogether.
Because you’ll make that narcissistic cop richer but you’ll also make Jameel, who is just as bad for making him richer and causing him to normalize this police practice, richer.
I've read the book and met both Jameel and Andrew. They are both amazing genuine people. I wouldn't say after reading the book that "redemption" came easy. Andrew had to work hard to build all the trust that he lost. When Andrew was convicted and arrested, the story went big in our community (I live in St. Joseph, the town across from Benton Harbour). People were mad, and they had every right to be so. Andrew spent his ttime. As he said once he got out, he started going to church. God was working on both of the men. God had developed them enough that when they met, Jameel was able to let it go for the moment. Later they worked together and forgave each other. They both wrote a bbook and Andrew now works for a company that helps at-risk youth. Once a week at my High School Andrew comes and hands out McDonald's for free to kids. I truly believe he has turned his life around, and I can see the fruits of it.
Jameel should have written the book alone. The cop coo co-opted into the friendships to
+ Not get sued
+ Profit from Jameel's trauma as much as Jameel
+ Ensure he has some input into the narrative
+ Ensure it sounds like a feel good story or redemption and not a racial police injustice story.
I can't! Black people can be soooo forgiving. May Jamel be blessed with success and prosperity. I hope you no longer have a record. You are amazing.
black man with drugs (not), gets ten years (3yrz), white man with drugs gets 18months
TheBodyLanguagetv They had possession of different drugs, the black man had cocaine and crack, the white man had minor drugs
And WHY he not in prision 10 YEARS FOR doing so bad job
Your comment explains it all.
Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk been sarcastic.
TheBodyLanguagetv wow wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a beautiful soul this black man has🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿God bless you my brother 🙌🏿
Yikes... did you see Collins talk over McGee when Megyn asked about the reaction from the black community? Collins may have good intentions, but I still think he needs to work on his ego. Dear Mr. Collins, please don't speak over Mr. McGee.
MissNebulosit 100 percent agree with u and some
I noticed that too. I don't think he has good intentions. I think he is using the "friendship" as PR for his image. He is a really dark and sadistic person. I feel so bad for the innocent man.
Am sure this is not an isolated story, many innocent black men are sitting in prison just because of this. Disgusting.
I'm so angry for jameel
Patricia Were you mean angry AT him for deciding to become friends with him.
I don’t think I would ever talk to him ,he was born a liar
If you knew my story you would never understand it.
I am with you
I feel like hes a narcissist. He is now getting attention and recognition because of the strength of the black man, if the black man did not act with dignity on their first meet after prison, the white man would not be going out of his way to apologise.
Forgiveness: "I became me again. Because I was so caught up in the bitterness . . . ".
Brilliant.
imagine how many other cops there are on the force like this......
All!!!
All
There are not as many crooked cops as you think. About 1% of all law enforcement officers are crooked. They put a bad reputation on all law enforcement officers.
Love and forgiveness are above everything, but honesty , humility and justice are important .
Black men cannot ever catch a break.
Gabriel Prosser Because this black man chose to be friends with this white cop.
It looks like he caught a break he making money off a book now lol
So you cannot be friends with someone of another race Stefan Unson ?
Let it go. Forgiveness is very purposeful and powerful
The Juice did! R.I.P. Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. Maybe socioeconomic status has something to do with it?
Is it possible for a judicial system to be fair?
I wish Jameel the best. Andrew??? Nope.
Jojo Jo I agree.
but it is up to jameel not us. they are doing good work the two of them,they give lectures. forgiveness is not about outside parties its about the involved parties
Jojo Jo Is it cause you're a racist?
I can't answer for Jojo, but it's because the guy was a corrupt cop is why for me.
sometimes things happen and it makes nosense and the out come makes nosense. leave them alone and let them work it out. jameel us a goid person, but that does not mean he is weak, because in order to forgive you would have to be so strong. andrew was a mess up person at that time , but i also feel he is embarrassed by his past actions. leave the guys alone and let them work it out. they are cool with each other😊
Besides possession of drugs, did the cop get sentenced for the false allegations and lying in official records?
If not, what message goes out to other cops who, knowingly or unknowingly, operate the same?
exactly
The ex-officer is just egotistical...it's all about him being lauded publicly for being oh so repentant. It's sickening....
modlinger32 , well said. I couldn't agree more. When you say it's sickening you're right. I feel like I could literally be sick after watching this mess.
Yep
On the plus side the white cop is admitting to corruption and possible profiling " he looked like a drug dealer " admitting that things like this happen.
modlinger32 ...YOU ON TO SOMETHING
Same here. I stopped the video half way through.
You can forgive him if you chose to, but there is no reason to befriend such an evil man!!!
with God everything is possible
exactly
That is the POWER of FORGIVENESS And this ex cop Can help police reform
I am with you Amy
he made many mistakes but there is always reconciliation
I would never trust cultivating any type of relationship with a man like this. Jamel (hope I spelled that right) is a much better person than I am.
Megan Schmidt me either
Being soft and weak does not make you a good person. This Black man comes off to me as weaker than a Lamb and as a Black man, I would never claim that he's a better man than me. That's some of our problems as Black men, thinking there's some kind of virtue in forgiving people who are trying to destroy us.
Nah he’s just dumb
The Ex- cop must serve at least 10 years in jail.
I woul had never forgiven this guy.
Kiswindsia? Have u ever needed forgiveness?
That cop should go to prison for the rest of his life and get sue to
So spit on the oath you swore to uphold and steal at least 3 years of a man's life and not drink a drop of meaningful justice? huh...so that's how it works.
Tu N exactly, he needs to repent, and pay for his crime. The debt is not paid.
ESAU...HAS NO REPENTENCES HEBREWS {12:16} KJV..
Pretty much...unfortunately.
Then change the system so he’ll be punished.
Why hasn't this cop been sent to jail for falsely arrsesting and framing this guy?
EXACTLY
How about Andrew goes to jail for perjury/falsification of documents on maximum sentence allowed by law and when he's released, then we'll have this little parade.
I wish I had the grace this man does. Beautiful inspiration of forgiveness!
Oh no my freine, Jamaal is a good personne but the cop is still a crook
Just last yrs this woman was on Fox talking about this kind of stuff don't happen! Remember that DL Hugley interview? She needs to go sit down somewhere!
Then this black man should have refused to be friends with this white cop and to appear on her show. So blame him not Kelly. If he had done those things, she would have no story.
Don't be stupid.that cop isn't your friend.
That ex-officer should be pay back by putting him in jail for three years. The SORRY is not good enough and the times that he was missing for his son.
Vann Om The judge and jury put him in jail, the officer simply arrested him.
I would’ve if he could be compensated by the state?
Eric K stfu
Imagine how many black men arrested, jailed or killed because of their size and color.
Effing sickening 🤬
You lie,I will hold it against you even in my grave.Forget forgiveness,this fool wouldn’t have blinked an eye if he hadn’t been busted for drug possession and his career ended
thats how you know something greater was involved here. usually people change as a result of something pivotal happening in there life. ask anyone who came off drugs why they came of drugs. sin is real. living in sin is destructive. something has to happen inside to trigger that. besides not everyone who goes to prison comes out reformed. so its clear he felt some kind of way inwardly that warranted a change in his life.
Paul Muturi
So what you're saying is God has to ruin a black man's life take him away from his son ruin his prospects of making legitimate money to reform a dirty white cop?
I'm trying to understand why it has to be God that makes an innocent man go to prison for no other reason it was no other way he can reform that white man no bad dreams and nothing that did not involve anybody else the only way you can make this happen this to make this man go to prison?
I wouldnt trust him
White guy keeps changing his story. In another video he did with Jameel, he admitted that he knew Jameel wasn't the guy when he got him locked up.
Runconna he said this on the show as well. He admitted he knew Jameel wasnt guilty after his prints came back clean. He said he just didnt care. He felt that he was guilty of something, even if he wasnt the right guy in this case. Basically, he showed his racism.
I'm talking about the initial arrest (poor phrasing in my first comment). He admitted in another interview that he knew Jameel wasn't the suspect at first contact, but didn't care, as long as he got an arrest. The guy is a terrible human.
Runconna Not only this guy white peoples in general are terrible human
EXACTLY! I CAUGHT THAT TOO.
Racism In America Narcissism, not racism, unless you can prove he racism.
This story truly gives me faith ! Jameel you truly are a BIG BIG MAN ! I can't even imagine what it took to forgive someone who took so much from you. You truly are an inspiration, and have inspired me ! Thank you
I would have to see Jesus face to face 3 times to help me forgive this guy. There are many more liars officers out there ready to lie about everything.
How was the cop even allowed to be a mentor aftera drug charge, falsifying reports, never paid for his crime...wth!?
I would never forgive that devil worshiper but i hope the black man got paid.
I'm a fairly forgiving person, but I don't think I would have that much strength to forgive.
So many cops that do that.
All over the world.
I think if they get caught for stuff like this they derserve life in prison
I agree I think they should throw the book at them.
L Turner they deserve to spend the same amount of years as the victim did. Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, life for life, time for time.
agreed
Thank god for video cameras on cell phones it expose lots of injustices
Of course there are also crooked cops in other parts of the world. But in the U$ system, it's pretty much embedded.
She said it was a miracle 🤦🏾♀️
#WhiteSupremacy
It's just another sad story. Check out wrongful conviction by Jason Flom. Free podcast on iheart radio for more story's like this. Very sad "bc he looked like a drug dealer "
Shouldn’t the police officer gone to prison for lying and also shouldn’t he have got more than 18 month for drug possession
Amen. God bless y’all all of y’all and y’all’s families.
Praying for y’all
This has been happening for years. Sadddddd. We are Convicted because we look Guilty(Black). Many Black men have died in Prison waiting for Some Cop to Tell the Truth. Glad this One worked out.
I can not listen to the en end anymore. This cop should be in prison for taking away a part of an innocent life.
You sir, are a forgiving ,kind man. I don't think that I could do what you did!! With that being said, God bless you both.
"And then its like a ...miracle" Megyn Kelly. How about: "And then it's ...justice". America, wake up. This kind of thing happens more than we know. I hope Jameel got some kind of settlement after wrongfully spending 3 years in prison.
jstringer4900 that miracle would be why did he become friends with that white cop?
This cop is such a horrible person!
9:17 She is totally asking Jameel about the black communities reaction, but Andrew didn't let him speak.
Wow. 3 years of that man's life. Major respect to this guy for forgiving because I don't know if I could.
Hardly a miracle, the guy spent 3 years in prison!
A true picture of biblical forgiveness and Reconciliation.. I will be purchasing a copy of their book. POWERFUL TESTIMONY!!!
You are s plain stupid forgivness
Jameel is to be applauded for his kind heart, love you. God is good.
U serious?
Cool
Amem
he is STUPID and passive that is all he is...
you joking right????
Most cops would never admit to any of their misdeeds (even when they get busted).
Singer i agree 80 percent. But i do believe there are a few good white cops as well. I have experienced them. And experienced evil ones. But i cant say that every white cop is evil.
Mary Preston I am a big supporter of members of law enforcement that follow rules and the law.
Unfortunately we have too many crooked ones that ruin it for the good and ethical ones.
I believe everyone deserves a second chance at life even the cop because he admitted to what he did and that speaks volume it really does how many people do you know would come clean to something cause I haven’t met many I would trust the Ex-Cop more than I would trust the people I’ve met through my life and I don’t hate those people either.
I must say, watching Megan host this show makes me sick to my stomach every time!
Joe T why? It’s the black man’s fault for being friends with the cop who imprisoned him and CHOOSING to appear on her show. It’s HIS FAULT, not Kelly’s.
@@unknownunknowns - So Naiz she got fired last month over the blackface Halloween costume sh*t. A true Trump- butt-kisser. Even FOX doesn't want her back. But she will be paid the full 69m$ for the 3 years contract. Not bad hey...
Sher Lizz She comes off as a winner because she doesn’t have to work while the other hosts who hated her have to work for less. Oh well I guess.
Let's forgive them when we never get forgiveness
His conviction must be overturned.
The face of the pink devil. Sad. I don't forgive
and your the reason it will never change.
only 18 months??!! really? and that guy forgave him??
The black man is a astonishing resilient man.
Poor Megyn using black victimhood to boost rating!
Ducaale A Then blame the black man for becoming friends with the white cop and showing up to her show. It is his fault, not hers.
This is a beautiful story. Wonderful indeed guys. Educative story.
My people are so forgiving 🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️ imagine how many lives this racist had ruined?? Now he is trying to buy his soul back
This is suicidal, that police officer should NEVER be forgiven. NEVER.
This brought tears to my eyes bcuz it's such a common story for people of color🥺😔 However, I commend this brother for his strength and will to carry on after everything he lost @for something he was innocent of. Just keep all of us lifted in prayer and pray corporately for all the other atrocious, unjust, horrible untold stories yet to be told (if ever told) worldwide out there.
Michigan has no Wrongful conviction compensation statutes. Jameel most likely did not get any compensation for being in prison for 3 years. The book deal maybe a way of getting him money. I hope Andrew, The Bad Cop, did not get any residuals from the book.
I remember their story they were working in a coffee shop together a few years back when I first heard their story. I’m glad to see them both still standing strong 💪🏽
