      It happens more often than you think. I spent 4 years in prison for a crime I didn't commit because of a dirty Baltimore City cop and, still to this day, nobody cares. I also spent 2 years in solitary confinement getting out of my cell for 15 minutes per week when I had a choice of a shower or a prepaid call that cost $10 for 5 minutes during which time you have to wear chains. All for someone elses dope in an alley that was 3 blocks away.

    With a lot of these cases, you get the feeling the only reason they finally released these men was that they got to the age where they needed a lot of care and medical attention, and releasing them was just cheaper.

      Prison definitely is not a great place to be! I did a five-year stent my first time and then a two-year stint, and a 1 year and 3 months sentence. Those days are long gone. I have an uncle that did 27 years straight for a murder charge. Needless to say things were different when he got out then they were when he went in.

    I was actually in county jail with a man that had served over 40 in prison. The part of the video that said a law passed in 2016 that minors couldn't serve life without parole anymore is true. The man I was in jail with was Jason, he was almost 60 and got locked up at 16 and was being released because of that law. I played chess with him and asked him what was the first thing he was going to do when he gets out. He looked at me with a straight face and said," hug a tree". He was a very intelligent man. Never asked why he was in for, although I'm sure it was murder.

    What people don't realise is you get institutionalised when you serve a long prison sentence so to them, being released to our world can be just as frightening as if we were to be sentenced into their world.

    Otis Johnson’s story scares me. I had been stopped for the same exact reason in east Baltimore. I was probably like 12 or 13 and the officer explained there was a shooting nearby and that I fit the description: tall, black man wearing a tan jacket. I sat there for 10 min for him to realize that the man had a beard. The reason I was scared was because I has been sitting in front of my house for hours before I got up and ran into the office. I did NOT hear any gunshots or commotion. Very sus! I was just hoping that my child-like appearance would be a clear indication that i was not the suspect they needed.

    Tell me about it. I have been in prison for 40 years now for something everyone in my home town knows I did not commit. But because if my sentence were to be overturned, thousands of others would have to be released. My case started what has become know as the joiner issue. The first case in the history of the U. S. A were 1 trial was held for 3 cases that happen on different days in different places. I was 22 years old then. I'm 62 now with know relief in sight. That's what I get for being born Black in the U.S.A.
