After watching this video, i wonder how many innocent people are dying silently in prisons without being able to prove their innocence.
Donald Andrews Jr, an African-American and a New York business owner's surveillance camera saved him from a 2-7 years jail terms after his shop cam captured an undercover police informant planting and photographing a crack cocaine in his shop, which led to his arrest.

The police had become suspicious of Donald Andrews who owns a smoke shop on Mohawk Avenue in Scotia, New York, and an undercover police informant was sent to the shop twice.


It was during the informant's second trip to the shop that he was caught on camera planting and photographing what appeared to be cocaine.

Andrew was arrested for a crime he didn't commit and was later released when he produced the incriminating video evidence recorded on his seven-camera surveillance system.

Schenectady County Sheriff, Dominic Dagostino, said that proper procedures were not followed; he however placed the blame on the undercover informant who has allegedly escaped.

Meanwhile, Andrew is in the process of filling a wrongful arrest lawsuit.
