A man who spent over two decades in jail for murder was set free on Tuesday by a judge who said his trial was deeply flawed. Rosean S.

  1. What does he mean “no new evidence has emeged”? How should it, if more than 20 years have past & they weren’t looking? This is crazy. They should just open up all the prisons across the country & let the criminals walk free because no “new” “evidence” has “emerged”! This is retarded!
