American prisoner who was nearly executed found innocent after 39 years behind bars
American prisoner who was nearly executed found innocent after 39 years behind bars
A US prisoner who once faced execution has been cleared of doing anything wrong after spending 39 years of his life in prison.
Ricky Jackson from Ohio spent almost four decades in captivity until a key witness at his trial admitted this year that he had lied as a boy.
There was no other evidence linking the prisoner to the murder.

Wonder how many others have been unjustly convicted...and actually execution-homicided by the state?
Quite a few, is my guess.
Prosecutors...baaah!
The justice system...baaah!
The death penalty/death row/premeditated cold-blooded killing of human beings by the state...BAAAH!
