Watching Proof of Innocence

[Pitt Gorilla]

on Discovery Times. Sad, sad show. Innocent people sentenced to incredible terms only to be exonerated years later. Here's the profile of the case from tonight.

I find these cases pretty scary. Anyone can be in the wrong place at the wrong time and have this happen to them.

This has to be the worst feeling in the world. To be convicted of a crime, spend time in jail and REALLY be innocent. I couldn't imagine the feeling. There is a guy that lives in my township that was sentenced to the death penalty for a murder in Arizona in the 80's. About five years ago he was finally exhonerated of this crime and is now free. His name is Ray Crone. So it does happen.

That's got to be the worst feeling, I really hope he was compensated. If i was the guy, i would ask for money and a state job. Because that guy prob has no skills / nobody will hire him.

Did they talk about the guy from Wisconsin...Steven Avery?

The guy served 18 years in prison for a rape he didn't commit. DNA analysis proved that someone else did it, so he was released from prison in 2003.

Two years later, he was charged and found guilty of murdering a 25-year-old woman. :shake:
