That video is before the movie

[@DaveSCameron]

ONE TIME HE COULD'VE BEEN CHAMPION OF THE WORLD!!!

[@ephanhymerable]

Unfortunately he decided to be a murderer instead

[@paulweir5031]

Well he tried, but Giardello bested him.

[@carolyngibson5324]

Amen

[@joannenoon8017]

Disgraceful what happened to him

[@ephanhymerable]

Well he was a murderer. What you expect?

[@susandavis147]

Unfortunately, it's not so rare. How he kept from going completely insane I don't know. I'm glad he at least finally was exonerated and got to spend the rest of his life free. But nothing could ever make up for having to live through a nightmare like that. What a strong human being.

Hi

[@westhoboken8167]

They were NOT given triple life sentences.Rubin was given double life only and John Artis was given only one life sentence and actually made parole.

[@26michaeluk]

He was guilty if you can get past the propane of the movie. They fail to mention the assaults on women since being released.

[@user-gi1up1li9y]

Your trash

[@willps_art]

IS INSPIRING TO SEE HIS SMILE.

Apparently he wasn't wrongfully convicted. Search "Graphic Witness Carter"

[@billgray3796]

Truly

[@hasanmuhammad3916]

So what was he then

[@aaronhoffmeyer]

According to the judgment in 1985, he was wrongfully convicted.

[@jimfladwood4393]

Rubin Carter was such a great man!
The system that took twenty years of his life, so very
BROKEN. R.I.P.
Dear friend 💔

[@KingLegendary1]

he's guilty

[@samuellowekey9271]

Yeah, Larry Elder mentioned him in his latest RUclips video. He says he's guilty.

[@KingLegendary1]

@@samuellowekey9271 I didn't even know that, I just knew the facts of the case

[@samuellowekey9271]

@@KingLegendary1 To be honest, i'd never heard of Rubin, or the film about his life until about three hours ago, when Larry talked about his crimes. Apparently one of the cast members from the film phoned Larry during one of his talk shows. He was angry with Larry for saying Rubin was guilty. Larry told him to go to a website called Graphic Witness and look up Rubin's case. He phoned back the next day to apologise to Larry. That's one film i wont be watching.

[@KingLegendary1]

@@samuellowekey9271 Oh yeah hollywood us demonCRAT propaganda, its sickening. But nah this dude did the crime and got out on a technicality if he was truly not guilty he woould have passed one of those polygraphs lol other boxers would have stood up for him

[@reinaldgunther3853]

How you know that

[@ephanhymerable]

He was never "wrongfully" convicted! Stop thinking movies are real life

[@billgray3796]

Truly

[@hasanmuhammad3916]

So what was he

[@JackEarthworm]

Then why was it overturned long before the movie?

[@ephanhymerable]

@@JackEarthworm he was granted a new trial

[@JackEarthworm]

@ephanhymerable right, because in the first trial, he was wrongfully convicted.
