Words do little to describe how amazing this story is. After reading all about it, I'm left speechless. Betty Anne Waters is a hero. She's incredible. She did what nobody does. The innocence project is built by good people like her working hard for a just cause. Thank you =)
I just finnished watching the film 'Conviction' staring Hilary Swank, and I must say, this is really quite a remarkable and touching story. God bless Betty Anne, what a wonderful sister and human being she is. The film prompted me to read more about this story, and I am deeply saddened to hear of Kenny's tragic passing, and only six months after being released, SIX MONTHS!, just so sad.
The justice system is in need of serious overhaul. Some people have no souls, for someone to sit there for 18 years knowing that someone is doing hard time for a crime they did not commit is beyond understanding.
Betty Anne Waters is an incredibly beautiful woman and so nice. I met her at a special 'Conviction' screening in Washington, DC. Tony Goldwyn, Sam Rockwell and Barry Scheck were also in attendance
On September 6, 2001, Kenneth Waters fell from a 15-foot wall while taking a shortcut to his brother's house after a dinner with his mother. He slipped and fell, dying from injuries related to head trauma, just six months after his release from prison. Kenny's death is not mentioned in the film. AND THAT'S HOW LIFE TROLLED THIS TALE
@jquiroga2k What?! It would have been the worst slap in the face ever for him to turn around and commit a crime immediately after his sister worked so hard to have him freed.
i wish i could somehow bring him back but im not god, hes prob doing good up there though... what an amazing sister, my fam prob wouldnt do the same, honestly

If I was ever in a jam. I think I'd like to have Betty Anne Waters fighting for me too. An absolutely remarkable woman.
I was readly to quit on something I was fighting until I saw "conviction" last night... you are my heroine... I will not quit.
This poignant video has left me sobbing. Our judicial system is pathetic and broken, at all levels.
Sad to hear after 6 months free he fell and died

SHE'S AMAZING
What this video doesn't mention is the fact that Kenny died in an accident 6 months after being released from prison.
I also donated to the innocence project this morning... Barry, you are a hero as well.
@thesearcher agreed. after i just read about him passing after he got out.. makes me fucking pissed at the peope who falsified the evidence.
