If you are interested in wrongfully accused cases, my friend Vincent Simmons, has been in Louisiana State Penitentiary for the past 42 years for a crime that never happened, was based on the testimony of three people, who testified against him in court in 1977, Vincent has a Facebook page called Free Vincent Simmons, a website the Vincent Simmons project, and we are currently trying to get a law/review passed to help Vincent and others who are wrongfully convicted the page is called The Innocence Law on Facebook, myself and Vincent want to help others who have faced the same injustice as he is, in Vincent's case, exculpatory evidence was withheld from his original trial in 1977, Vincent was convicted of attempted aggravated rape, his initial charge was aggravated rape, but the death penalty that they wanted to be passed for Vincent's sentence, had been commuted to 20 years and people on death row had their sentences commuted, so the DA changed the charges once he realised that Vincent was not going to get the death penalty to attempted aggravated rape, and Vincent got two 50 year sentences, 100 years, the two twins testified in court that Vincent brutally raped them, the one twin Sharon Sanders, testified in court that Vincent brutally raped her for 30 minutes and climaxed, her medical report ( which along with other evidence was withheld from his trial until Vincent was finally allowed after many years of trying to get the information was finally given it in the 90's) Sharon's medical report said that the Dr could not do a proper rape kit check because her hymen was still intact, he couldn't even insert one finger for examination, all of this type of evidence existed and was available at Vincent's trial but his attorney wasn't given it or had any knowledge it existed, after years had gone by a documentary was made on Vincent, they found 7 jurors still around and alive they asked if they had known about the evidence would they have convicted Vincent, 6 out of the 7 said no, and they were damn right upset when they were shown the exculpatory evidence, Vincent finally after 41 years last October got a hearing to see if he could have a evidentiary hearing, the Judge denied Vincent, he claimed that the evidence had expired it should of been filed within 2yrs of Vincent's original trial in 1977, Vincent hadn't known it had existed until the 90's after years of being denied the right to the information from his case, he couldn't of possibly filed it within the 2 years, it was not Vincent's fault, now the Judge who denied Vincent's evidentiary hearing last October should of recused himself because before being a District Judge, he worked for 18 years in Vincent's original prosecutors law firm, the same prosecutor who withheld the evidence, how could he of been impartial on these grounds, they can't allow him to have a evidentiary hearing because they know the damage they caused, it's wrong it's unfair and it's illegal, they broke the Brady v Maryland Supreme Court ruling, where exculpatory evidence should not be withheld, but because no one is above them they can do as they please, there is no one looking over them, which is why we need the Innocence Law, please if you are interested please join us on his Facebook page Free Vincent Simmons, his website is The Vincent Simmons Project, and our campaign for The Innocence Law, founded by myself and Vincent to hopefully help Vincent and others, if you know anyone who will be interested please tell others and please write other cases on the Innocence Law page so we can help others in same situation and together we can all make a difference, Thank You for reading this, we hope to see you on our pages soon, if you are interested in watching Vincent's parole hearing on KZbin I encourage you to watch his parole hearing which is what caused outcry around the world and the filmmakers decided to do a documentary solely on Vincent in 1999 called shadow of doubt, we need to get Vincent's story out there please join us, Best Wishes to you 😊

@orvil92235 жыл бұрын
Because the police are not above the law, supposedly, so how do they deal with that? They have laws that are just for the policemen, that's how. That is why they are never convicted at trial. They are put on trial in egregious cases to satisfy the public outcry, and to keep the voters off of the prosecutor's back, but, they are never convicted. Look up the Kelly Thomas case from Fullerton, CA. Once they are found not guilty, the prosecutor can say "I tried!" and everyone goes back to sleep.
@AntiMasonic934 жыл бұрын
Actually, the real reason why police officers and detectives do not get charged is because the police, the judges, and freemasons are all on the same page. Freemasons control the police and have a strong influence on the opinions of judges; therefore, police officers are fully protected because of freemasonry.

Yes, he should have restitution in the form of monetary means. Any type of business that can harm others, should carry some sort of insurance, that pays for their wrongdoings. I know its a publicly funded business, however I still think they should carry insurance. We the people shouldn't have to pay the tab for the systems wrongdoings. Don't say that the police department and Justice system isn't a business, because it is a for profit business. Private prisons should never had been allowed to exist. We the people will lose our Republic, if we continue to allow elected officials to carry on as they are. Private, for profit prisons, is an unjust business. Why would anyone want to own a prison, because prisons are gigantic cash cows. The companies that partner/contract with the prisons also makes billions. I'm referring to the phone companies, commissary companies, food companies, and any other business that has a contract with any prison. How and why did we the people allow for private, for profit, prisons come to be? If we continue to allow private corporations control our government, and supposedly state run facilities, we will lose all our rights. When any prision becomes a business for profit, they should carry insurance and be held responsible for any falsely accused person. Their insurance company must pay heavily for any fasly imprisoned person. How can a state funded system put people in a for profit privately owned prison? This should be a conflict of interest. What are your thoughts?

All of this should have been done BEFORE he was taken to trial. We MUST increase the burden of proof necessary for someone to be charged since juries DO believe cops over civilians bc they assumed that you're GUILTY not innocent just bc you were arrested. Bc the police hold power over life and death, they MUST be held to a higher standard PERIOD. ANY abuses should be absolutely not tolerated in ANY way and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law PERIOD. But that won't happen bc those in power want to keep the power thus our justice system is rotten to the core, but ONLY if we stand together and speak out will things change. However it will be difficult bc those in power FEAR the ppl. Thus they want u to feel as helpless and insignificate as possible as well as that it doesn't matter bc it doesn't affect you. IT DOES matter! If you in ANY way want to be free. Bc IF our justice system worked, the land of the free wouldn't house over 1/6th of the entire WORLD'S prison population. Obviously something is SERIOUSLY wrong, and when something is SO unbalanced you ALWAYS know the motive, money, control and most of all POWER

This is the definition of travesty of Justice. Not only was this man railroaded into prison, but the victim never got their Justice either. No one seemed to really care, they just wanted to close the file on the murder.

What a touching and moving documentary. I’m so glad these individuals fought for Marcus and showed him love. Those officers should be ashamed and deserve to rot in hell. And I even support the police as a whole. Can’t believe cops would do that to ruin a persons entire life. I’m so happy Marcus gets to live his life free. Very inspiring.

I want to know what happens to the police officers that put people in jail that cost them many years behind bars that are actually innocent ? I think that they should go to jail for lieing under oath and providing fake evidence to commit this innocent mans life to jail . why is it that just because he's a police officer that this is ok to do and also think by giving these INNOCENT people money thinking that will mk everything ok when they can't get bk that time ever again . how do these people live with themselves and its obvious they were white police officers that did this to him and many others this is a crime within itself they should be punished for putting this young man in jail for a murder he did not commit . they should be jailed for lieing and conniving shit they came up with all of them should be in jail and he definitely should get paid also with a national apology.

Training won't help. We have an Asperger justice system and you cannot train cognitive empathy and the corresponding power of judgement to people who have a lack of cognitive empathy, trouble in getting a global picture and black- and white-thinking. Such people have to refrain from judging matters that are too complex for them.

Since as far as I can tell the cops never even took the time to do a actual "investigation", they just arrested someone, then working BACKWARDS they manufactured their case. Something I hate the most is cops using their "guts" instead of evidence. The reason being is that ive dated more then a couple cops and believe me, to them EVERYONE is guilty, even with evidence, witnesses, alibis. Thus if someone look halfway good for it, they latch on to you and NEVER let go nor EVER look at anyone else, since at the end of the day they want to close cases and make arrests as FAST as possible, hence no recovery of the bullets, no casings, no GSW test, destruction of MOST of the evidence even though by '99 and they should have kept it. Thus I smell a rat. Also the next HUGE issue and this is a MASSIVE one, bc any evidence that calls into question his guilt MUST be given to the defense, cops are VERY good at ONLY running tests on things that wil make their case stronger, and they will NOT inform experts about the full case, thus they don't know that they are being used to bolster a theory that the expert witness IF told would tell them was totally BS. They are also very good at creating evidence by their interrogation methods. This is why I say continually, you will NEVER talk you way OUT of trouble only into it, and your rights are NOT to protect the guilty but to protect the INNOCENT from the govern abuses. Thus when a cop says "if you're innocent you'd agree to do x,y,z. Don't fall for it. Also don't worry for ONE second about how it might look to NOT speak to the police, regardless of the situation. Since their "gut" and their suspicions about you will NEVER get you charged with a crime bc exercising your rights CANNOT be used against you in ANY way, nor be seen as evidence of guilt. Since your constitutional rights are given to you by GOD not the constitution. Bc you have a right to be safe in your person and effects, you obviously have NO obligation to speak, you have EVERY right to defend yourself both physically and legally, and you have the right for you to say what you WANT to say while filming them. You will only EVER lose by speaking to the police, if that had probable cause you'd be arrested, so we Americans need to STOP helping cops arrest us. Bc when a cop says, "it'll go easier for you if you comply" he really means it'll go easier for HIM. Since at the end of the day the purpose of EVERY conversation you EVER have with a cop is for the cop to get incriminating evidence so he can arrest you PERIOD and often times the ONLY actual evidence of ANYTHING is the recording of the interrogation NOTHING else is in ANY way solid. Bc our juries are quick to throw someone's life away on a maybe bc lets face it the majority of ppl believe (bc thinking otherwise is scary) that IF someone has been arrested and charged the cops MUST have a very VERY good reason why. Thus this presumption of innocent until proven guilty is 100% false, you are in for the fight of your life PERIOD. NEVER underestimate a jury to convict you on NOTHING or literally ONE piece of evidence bc lets face it especially in the south, the Republicans fan fear in ppl continually. Since if you make someone less afraid who is Republican they IMMEDIATELY bc democratic in their thinking, but making sure that the poor, minorities and downtrodden are felons insures that they CANNOT vote, they are also deprived of ALL of their right until they are off parole, however even when they paid their dues to society they STILL cannot vote since the courts add TONS of fines on top of everything and they MUST pay this first, obviously this is a direct attack on minorities and the poor (it's also a republican state thing), though the WORST state is the flip state Florida where you require a governors pardon to get your voting rights back. Thus over 1.5 million ppl can't vote, or in essence enough ppl that IF they voted, the state would slant Democratic. Thus this widespread racism and targeting of minorities has a purpose, and remember DA's are in a elected position, along with the judges, mayor, sheriffs etc... They want power and they want control, and especially they want to keep their power. Thus the way the system works atm, is it doesn't work at ALL! It's there to convict you and thus make it near impossible for you to get the result overturned, since juries forgot that their PRIMARY purpose is to see that JUSTICE is done. They DO NOT have to abide by what the law says, or in essence IF they believe that someone did commit the crime they can STILL find him not guilty. Their purpose AGAIN is to protect us from the government, yet we've been brainwashed into just doing their bidding and judge insisting you have to look at the definition of the charge and IF u think he did it, you MUST convict. NO if THAT is what the constitution wanted there would be NO need for a jury since a judge would be FAR more able to determine guilt or innocence based on the LAW. The thing I learned thats the MOST important is that NOTHING u say to them will in ANY way prove ur innocence. U will not talk ur way out of trouble ONLY into it. If a cop starts asking ANY questions not directly related to the incident in which u have contact with him DONT answer, just redirect him back to said traffic violation. Since he has absolutely NO right to have u answer any of those questions, let alone right to ask UNLESS u answer. then u give him the window. The ONLY other time is if he has suspicion but make him spell it out. Never ask a cop about IF ur legally required to do something, he'll ALWAYS lie. Finally NEVER trust a cop in anything he says. They are taught to lie, to keep u from suspecting what they are doing, to pretend ur free to go when ur not, and in essence to keep u from saying a couple magical words. "I want a lawyer" in fact the entire thing is to try and get u to either like the dude, or be afraid of them and thus NOT exercise ur rights including ur right to remain silent. This doesnt mean saying nothing, it means not answering questions unless ur legally required which btw is ONE thing only Your name, dob, and maybe, MAYBE ur address but NEVER more then this. Thus No giving out ur ssn, phone, or anything else and ONLY tell him this if he has probable cause uve committed a crime, are committing a crime or are going to commit one. Other then that he cant get ur name, or NOTHING. However be prepared for a fight especially if you are a young black or hispanic males. Bc the reason they are willing to violate ur rights, assault u, harass u, threaten u, is all for ONE purpose. They want to run ur license and see if u "pop" aka have a arrest warrant out. Thus they try to ID anyone and everyone they meet, and they target anyone in a POS car, anyone who is a minority especially if a black male. They will threaten u with impeding a officer in the commissions of his duty, of course he has to actually be doing something, aka u have to physically be in the way or committing a crime atm and IF he could arrest u, u'd be arrested since remember this WHOLE song and dance is so he can arrest u. Of course they'll throw out failure to ID, which btw requires to be already arrested and down going through booking at the jail OR driving a vehicle and caught breaking traffic laws AND ur the driver. ALL passengers have done nothing, thus technically they could get out and walk off. Of course if u fail to do anything less then bend over and take it up the ass the cops will want to make sure u know their the boss, the ONLY thing that'll stop them is if ur VERY articulate, know the laws, and remain calm while filming. If ur anything less ur toast. of course they wont even charge u, or drop the charges but all the same its intimidation, false imprisonment, violation of ur civil rights, assault, falsifying evidence, tampering with evidence, abuse of authority. and this they do ALL the time without thinking about it and we the people have FORGOTTEN that we hold the power. IF we ban together like what happened up in Chicago about the cop that murdered a 17 yro guy, who never threatened ANY officer and whom they were ONLY looking at bc he'd popped a cars tire. He was shot 17 times, with 14 of those times while he was on the ground. This cop was paid for 400 days, and the mayor did EVERYTHING possible to hide this, but when the news station (the reason for the first amendment btw) finally got the footage of the shoot, the mayor then arrested him. Of course the ONLY reason this happened at all is bc the ppl wouldn't let it go away. They keep at it, they protested, and finally the mayor got nervous since remember our power is our numbers, thus ANYTHING we do together we can succeed at. Thus we have to STOP allowing them to divide us (both sides to a degree), making us feel like our votes don't matter (we have the LOWEST voting avg in the developed AND non developed world) bc literally if 1% of the population of the US, or 3.5 million of us got together we would be unstoppable. That's literally ALL it takes. Since power ALWAYS lies. What we don't realize is that the REAL voting that counts ISN'T the presidential but our own backyards, the city, the state, and the prelims. Since at the end of the day THAT'S the vote that decides who's on the ballot, and that's the vote where only their most stanch supporter vote in. Thus THEY are controlling our entire fate by insuring we don't have any good choices.

Solving crime takes hard work, dedication, ability, time and effort and money. Very few police officers are up to the job in the first place. It is much easier to decide whom is guilty and then manufacture the necessary evidence. Unfortunately this happens all too often. Prisons are full of innocent people. Low pay= incompetent police

And why the hell did they need that final witness before they would get him released? Then even with all that,still wasn't released. The law is an ass. even one witness alone along with the other evidence should have been enough. they had about 7 clear evidence to prove his innocence. one of which should have been enough to reopen the case or at least have a thorough look into it.this is awful. the same Justice system that finds you guilty, should also be the same justice department that looks into mistakes or wrongful convictions,not leaving it to justice groups only.the law needs to be reformed.soon as they find a reasonable case for any error made, they should separate that convict and house him in a safe and comfortable environment till they do the full investigation.

Good luck to who ever you do again and rase keep these coming I love watching these,,I'd live to help out in these cases or even cold cases as well, And if anyone is involved in putting a innoccent person away for life or even years knownly that person is truly innoccent should be put in prison them selves.. How dare anyone play God with anyone's life shame on you ,,you have no clue WTF you've done to this person/people ECT. You sit n tell people everyone hey I'm innoccent and I didn't do this crime and it's like everyone goes ya ya sure sure everyone in jail is innoccent right??.no I think there is a lot though and if possible I hope they get out but I'm sure 80% die in there innoccent people and nothing you can do ..hate the justice system,,we could be just sitting at home and get a knock on the door and guess what off to jail for murder when you didn't do no such thing,,I dunno I got nothing but respect for all these people helping these people and believing them,,.

My son went in there healthy but after years in there he has diabetic and now he has signs of kidney failure with health needs being unmet. SMH-it doesn't make sense.
