So touching. Thank God he's out

In this case, i would say Justice delayed isn't justice denied.

27 freaking years is a whole lot mehn. It calls to mind the deceased Nelson Mandela (God rest his soul).

I wish him the grace to forgive those who wrongly accused and convicted him of the crime he never commited.

That's a whole bleeping lot.. F*ck-ng 27yrs

Damn.. but hey he got rich. Some consolation ?

^^^ yeah, he'll be rich but then who knows what he must have gone through in prison, emotionally and health wise, and again the lost years he'll never get back, as per his family (if he already had one). money is never really a consolation when you look at these issues closely

chai

That's sad.
The monetary compensation is negligible sef.
I feel for him.
