Don't jump into conclusions and spread more hate you guys. There's more to the story then this but of course u all gonna hate because that's all u do... I don't believe Trump would do no such thing!! All lies and accusations will be coming into light very soon... Glad you gentlemen are now free but u guys gotta hear his side.. I want to hear Trump say what u claim he said!!!

[@johnstubbs3401]

"When a person shows you who they are ,believe them." Trump has always been a WS, he was brought up to think that way from his father. Remember that he and his father was susued for being racist towards their tenants before.

These men are heroes. They survived white hate and are speaking about it. My heroes, who were hated on, imprisoned, and who knows how they were treated inside, are inspiring. Thank you, gentlemen, for not putting your hands on that white woman. They accuse us every day. Some new brothers barely 18 or younger as we have seen, can go to jail. A practice with thousands of years in the making must come to an end. Our sisters, please do not abandon us.

[@vincekilloran843]

It was a travesty of justice, to be sure. But, before dubbing these men "heroes" please remember that at least some of them did physically assault several unidentified individuals and threw rocks at passing cars. The point is to focus on the miscarriage of justice, not canonize perpetrators of crime.

[@brendab.5111]

I agree Xavier. They are hero’s to those who have been falsely accused and gone through the fire and came through. 🙏🏽🙏🏼🙏🏽🙏🏼

You can’t go after the jury because no one would do jury duty anymore. Unless they have proof they lied on their questioners. But the judge for sure ,they should be held responsible for their mistakes and or not caring about truth and just closing cases

No she just refused to release evidence proving that a man on death row was innocent, locked up parents because their kids skipped school and refused court orders to let prisoners out of jail when their sentence where fully served because she claimed she needed the slave labour!

As of August 25, 2024, 27 states and American Samoa still have the death penalty as a legal penalty at the federal level. However, 20 of those states only have the authority to sentence people to death, while the other seven, along with the federal government and military, have moratoriums in place. The states that still have the death penalty include: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, and Kentucky. Other states that have the death penalty include Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming. The death penalty is usually reserved for the most serious crimes, such as aggravated murder. However, there is no credible evidence that the death penalty deters crime. Since 1973, at least 189 people who were wrongly convicted and sentenced to death have been exonerated. In 2023, seven states sentenced people to death, including Alabama, Arizona, California, Florida, Louisiana, North Carolina, and Texas. In the same year, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro announced a moratorium on executions, and Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs and Attorney General Kris Mayes ordered an examination of the state's execution procedures.

[@mimimusick9734]

The death penalty has never been a deterrent in any country. Humans don't think that far ahead when they're committing a crime. The only time it ever worked was in Transylvania, when Vlad Tepes-- Vlad the Impaler-- instituted an automatic death penalty for any and all infractions, including wearing the wrong type of shoes.

[@jveebklyn1644]

I'll bet you voted for Joe Biden, who actually wrote legislation leading to mass incarceration and disparate sentencing for crack vs powder cocaine. Now you're going to vote for Kamala Harris who smoked marijuana in college and prosecuted people for doing the same thing. Trump was a private citizen with a big mouth and a big wallet. Who did more actual damage?

They were deprived of their youth life and of their families. No money is enough to pay for what the "justice" system did to them. I'm very glad that they were exonerated. Racism MUST be a capital offense.
