All Too Familiar

The events that led to my conviction and wrongful imprisonment should never have happened.  Those events were the result of a process that was corrupt to its core -- one that is all too familiar -- even in 2021.

While I do not need a court, prosecutors, or a piece of paper to tell me I am innocent, I am glad that my family, my friends, and the attorneys who have worked and supported me all these years are finally seeing the truth we have all known officially recognized.
