The criminal system in America is busted. A lot of people that are in prison should not be in prison. Unless you are actively selling hardcore drugs or you are someone that acting on violence and are a threat to public safety, you should get house arrest, not be thrown in prison. The cycle just makes criminals and unfortunately, a lot of our young black men end up hardened and their lives ruined because of it. Then you have cases like this popping up more and more where our people get put in prison for years only to be released with a "oops, we were wrong!"... People should be paid when this happens. Quarter mil for every year behind bars innocent.
