18 months in prison, but a lifetime of atonement, repentance, and self-reflection. The cop is likely one of the handful or several people who actually turned over a new leaf (he did find the corrupt charges and basically turned himself in). Not many people would do that. In the end, the cop became a better person. Evil is a like a disease - it'll take over if you let it. *Who knows how many people would have suffered if the cop continued to be corrupt?*

Friend, no one was trying to impress you or anyone in this exchange.

If this man did four years in jail and is able to accept the ex-corrupt cop that put him there as his mentor, there's no way that we to cannot forgive that man. My God is an awesome God.

As angering as this story was...whatever God does is WELL DONE. The Bible is very clear that God ALLOWS us to go through our trials and tribulations to deliver us to the greater good. We come out so much stronger and are better equip to handle the bigger tails that will come. All the glory belongs to God. I see 2 very mature men.......spiritually mature especially. Most men in this world do not have a smidgin of spiritual maturity as these 2. These 2 men are living testimonies to what God can do. Racial tensions, Perceptions, Misconceptions, White Privilege, Police Privilege all played a role in their story, and it was only both their relationships with Jesus Christ and Jesus Christ alone who stripped away all those barriers and brought 2 very unlikely men together to be a testimony and a witness for God. If God could change Saul (a man who used to murder and execute God's children) into Paul (one of Jesus's disciples) then how much more these 2 men, and more like them? *ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE THROUGH JESUS CHRIST.* There are a few spiritually mature Christians who will better understand all that I just wrote and the 2 guys story. God deserves ALL the glory.

Exactly!! Its very apparent what is says. Just pathetic bunch of people

[@dianna83301]

I don't see white justice, I see one had a better lawyer than the other. If your using a public defender face it your going to jail I don't care what color you are makes no diffrence

[@amazingmimi6682]

Germein I'm in tears 😢, you are such a human may God grant you long life beside your son and family. Your actions smazed me great role model.

[@rifajay367]

We need people like jameel who have a heart of forgiveness

[@aalekhine5109]

Jameel is a better man than me...and I am white as snow. Much respect Brother....may you find peace for yourself. We can do better...

[@M.J44]

Andrew turning himself around is an extremely helpful thing. We can only pray more people act like him. I know putting a man falsely in prison is wrong, I'm well aware. But think about this: How many cops do that? How many? None. I know when people see this they say "Well he got caught, that's it." Keep in mind that HE admitted to who's-who, not forced to. He used this wakeup-call for good. Either way, super glad Jameel's free & super glad this cop won't pull that anymore.

Congratulations guys forgiving is the key to life and gods heaven. God Bless you both ❤️

[@the_minuteminister7642]

This is such an amazing story!

[@ShopaholicOne]

WTH? The white Guy needs to be in prison. Why he sitting at Steve Harveys show? Sorry I dont understand maybe because Im from Holland

[@nieshamccoy9419]

He served an 18 month prison sentence

[@mariemeaaliyahmoe1237]

+Niesha McCoy that's not enough. 18 month?? they should have given him at least 10 years!

[@MRostendway]

For real tho. He should have done at least the same amount these other people he framed did.

[@thecyberninja2708]

ShopaholicOne dat is hoe het gaat in amerika als je zwart bent kunnen ze je gewoon aresteren zonder reden en jij kan er letterlijk niks aan doen

[@benm6716]

@@mariemeaaliyahmoe1237 they should of given him a 10 year sentence and made him serve at least 80 percent for what he did

Forgiveness is like perfume that sprays freedom to many souls on earth.James thanks for forgiving him.

[@teresaguzman9167]

I love this story!!!!! God intervened in the lives of these two men.

[@neishatate7734]

I'm sorry but I cudnt forgive him

[@neishatate7734]

SDD525 I know no1 is perfect I'm speaking from a personal point of view I cud never forgive. I cudnt even sit on d same couch with me

[@neishatate7734]

SDD525 for real I can c he has not gotten over it n I understand bcuz its hard. but I cud careless that d officer pled guilty n Jamel was released. bottom line is he made him lose family time that he can never get back n that's Wats hard. its all good n well that he "changed" but if d feds didn't catch up on him wud he have changed? n if so how long wud it have taken him. wud Jamel had to do all 10yrs first. those r d million dollar question

Repent . Christ is Lord

[@eunicemmotoh3491]

You are a very brave person by forgiving your perpetrator. God bless you bro

[@dsunwatson5544]

Forgiveness is very powerful thank God He truly was in both hearts

[@kristinbrown7144]

He only got 18 months in prison after he ruined others lives and there families. lives of innocent children without there parent. definitely unfair but hey I am glad he is on the turnaround

[@garbles1970]

What happened with them is what needs to happen in the world wear the pain and accept accountability...God can do what man can't but you have to have a heart of repentance

[@KIMKIM-zg1ym]

But like Jamel said he want to punch him he could have be shot dead if feared his life, and If he was Felony Assaulted he would gone right back to prison.

[@MEGAFATG]

*their, their.

[@ritam.1566]

God is still in control! :) I have heard many people say that "once you're a cheater/murderer/liar..., you're always a ____________". However, people are changed every day by God's grace and power. The world is so quick to throw the police officer under the bus and never deal with him again, but the way that the Lord worked on the hearts of these two men is a testimony for us all. We have a lot to learn from God daily.

[@darrylpowell8247]

Amen.

[@HassanAhmed-wo3bf]

We need you more oncle steve Harvey

[@hollyb.hansen7272]

THAT'S FORGIVENESS! AMEN.

[@mzVivikaBam]

I'd be disgusted sitting in that audience when the cop started telling his story. I think I woulda threw something at him. Maturity is about righting your wrongs but dam that would of took a while to forgive if at all. And then 25yr sentenced downed to 18mths. TF? least give the cop the same amount of time that Jamel ended up doing.

[@nieshamccoy9419]

At least, he stood up and admitted he was wrong for it.

[@jennygreat4846]

+Niesha McCoy lol I guess that I'm sorry made up for the 4 years he was in prison....missing his kids' life.

[@mzVivikaBam]

+Niesha McCoy like he said, he only admitted it cuz he was caught. Doesn't sound like he would have ever admitted anything. And of course being a cop no matter crooked or good, protected his ass. I'm still on 25yrs downed to 18mths. Even for good behavior, that's a huge leap. If this was Law and Orders Svu, the episode would have him do a bus for every victim.

[@nieshamccoy9419]

Julie D Well, at least the only person he's worried about having forgiveness from is Jameel.

[@jesushateswood]

I want to punch the cop in his face. He framed a man because of accolades at work? This white boy thought nothing about framing a Black man. He valued Black life so little he didn't turn over a new leaf until trouble came his way. Forgiveness my ass!!

[@JackBlackwithadashofWeirdAl]

Jameel is clearly a very good man . He knew he needed to let go so he could have peace in his own heart and life . Andrew on the other hand got off waaaaay too easy. He destroyed peoples lives. I highly doubt everyone handled it like Jameel did.
