He spent 7 years not 47 years. Wrong and painful conviction though.

A girl was raped but by a different person. Police arrested someone they thought fit the profile but you still somehow blame women😓😓

Yes, correct, but the problem is, as an ex convict he would find it difficult to get jobs. Also, as a ed sex offender, he has to notify the police of his prescence wherever he is and if a rape happens in his neighbourhood, the police would look at him as a potential suspect.

And guess what, as a sex offender, he may find it difficult to move into certian residential areas. No one wants a sex offender in their midst.

Yes, correct

He needs to be compensated handsomely

Injustice prevails everywhere in the world and the causes are:

1. Racial/tribal bias

2. Religious inclinations

3. Classism

4. Kinship affinity

5. Business interest

6. Political factor.

He served 7 years plus in prison and that was back in 1976. He's been trying to clear his name since then

Without checking, I already knew it would be a Black man...!

You would almost think the other major race doesn't rape women or get accused of rape.

This your defense weak ma, two teenagers coming back from school. Most likely in the afternoon as they even knew d cloth d real suspect was wearing.

So between those two girls, non of them can come out to say "No judge, he doesn't look like the culprit?" A suspect who they perfectly identify his clothing.

Chai! Most women are evil.

This is not the fault of the woman. Did you read through?

The police is at fault here.

I wonder how many people have been wrongly convicted and dispatched off to the great beyond through the death penalty. Truly man's way and manner of doing justice is not infallible much less the show of shame we witnessed yesterday.

Though Mr Mack had a strong alibi and was wearing different clothes than the suspect, police still arrested him.
Na wah! The hate for black folks is something else. Flip it around and guess if a white man happened to plied that route at that moment, what would happen to him?

Happens to white people too.

After all, one UK chap was jailed for 4 years for a crime that he supposedly comitted , just because he 'fit the basic description'. And he was white...and a former policeman. Took him years to clear his name.

So you think the court will jail the man without the victim confirming him as the rapist?

So you too you didn't read this part ba?

Witness misidentification is the leading cause of wrongful convictions, according to the Innocence Project. In this case, the girls identified Mr Mack during a flawed police identification process.

I'm not exornorating the police men, but the girls has the final say, if they have said no, the police would have left the man..

undecided

My friend read properly.....he was sentenced for 7 years but the incident occurred 47 years ago.

This is the importance of English English comprehension taught in primary and secondary school.
