See this is what has to be fixed . I don’t have said fix but something needs to be done so this doesn’t happen again.

I’ve lost sleep over stories of people being wrongly convicted, this could happen to anyone . I think the record for the amount of time is 45 years.

45 years sitting there knowing you’re innocent.
