Wow so there’s no justice in this world

Riley Senn says:

That’s a tough dude it takes a strong will to do what he did. Not only is it hard for spouses when their significant other goes to prison but it’s often very difficult for loved ones to understand why you won’t take the plea just to come home sadly they take it as them being less important to you than whatever is stopping you from taking the plea.

Methuselah says:

Fake news. He’s alive. If I thought it was death of me or the other guy and me going to prison for the rest of my life then I will take the later.

Cop's and Robber's do worse.

What about open carry in a motor vehicle?

Southern Nevada offroading and back country says:

I hope he sued the state for wrongful conviction!!

¡saac says:

This story makes me so scared and sad, wow those prosecutors should serve double the time he did for wrongfully taken 8 hours off an innocent mans life.

Richard Barnhart says:

You have to be a hardened career criminal with 20 felony convictions of you want to get carefully coddled and cuddled by the corrupt clowns controlling the criminal justice system.

Family Man says:

Something that people never talk about is the reason why police officers automatically go on the offensive and do what they do yes they are doing a job but the more collars they get The better promotions and so on so there is an incentive for them to bust people It's all about accolades

Mark Stanchfield says:

Joe P535 says:

Judge, prosecutors and detective were essentially working beyond the law, unlawfully.

rshveyda says:

Whether you carry or not, everyone should read "You Have the Right to Remain Innocent" by James Duane. The American justice system, it's prosecutors and law enforcement have long been predatorial in nature. Vague and overreaching laws are put on the books in such numbers that no lawyer, let alone civilian, could ever find, read and obey them all. Our justice system has lost it's way, when cops are trained to lie and use every dirty trick in the book to coheres confessions, misrepresent evidence and bringing in "experts" to outright lie on the stand to gain a conviction. Never, ever speak to a cop. Even with a good lawyer it will be an uphill battle to prove your innocence. And, with a skilled enough attorney, even the guilty often get acquitted. I'd love to believe that a trial uncovers the truth, but more often it's just a sign of who could afford the better attorney.

Collin Higgins says:

Mary Anderson has a Yelp page, she’s now in private practice, everyone should head on over there and drop a review letting potential clients know the hell she put this innocent man through.

Tony Yu says:

The judges and DAs should be jailed.

Tony Yu says:

Democrat DAs and judges are criminals.

dm7097 says:

So his advice is not to talk to investigators? But when he didn’t talk, the prosecutor went for blood.

Maxdog says:

I want a lawyer. Say nothing else! Police are NOT our friends. 8 yrs. destroyed for nothing! Sickening.

Shot Gun says:

Know how it feels. Happened to me a lot of times. I consider myself scard for life same reason I keep pro 2A. Thankfully for me I was never convinced and didn't come to the extent of murder. God is in control 🙏.
