Interview with a Death Row Inmate who was INNOCENT.

Anthony Ray Hinton spent 30 years on Death Row in Alabama, waiting for his turn to face the electric chair. At 29 years of age he was convicted of killing two white restaurant workers. The police officers who arrested him, the judge, prosecutor and jury who sentenced him were all white. As a poor, young black man, Anthony remembers he “didn’t stand a chance.” In 2015, after three decades behind bars, Anthony was set free. The state of Alabama has never apologized or compensated Anthony in any way. Our reporter Colm Flynn sat down with Mr. Hinton for this remarkable interview to hear how he learned to forgive, and how his faith now today, is stronger than ever.

This poor man should be awarded millions of dollars from the state of Alabama.

The system to this day personally refused to apologize to this man, refused to financially compensate to help him get on his feet.

He should be compensated if he was innocent most definitely. Alabama definitely has major racist and internal policing issues. He needs the best lawyer.

What a wonderful person.

And I think my crosses are heavy. God love him !

This breaks my heart. How dare anyone convict a man because of their colour. I am a white australian woman with 3 mixed race children that i am so proud of, and i feel disgraced that white people would look at black people in this way. I am truly sorry for the way you have been treated.

What I don't understand is, if there is a God, how could he have allowed the injustice in the first place? I am so happy this gentleman was set free, after all that time.

Just like Clarence Bradley of Texas, it's all because of the color of his skin and he was poor, when you're in this category you don't have the resources to fight the system.
