Sitting in jail for 10 years awaiting trial is INSANE!

[stephenasearlesii]

Arrest the police and attorneys who knew the truth, but destroyed these innocent men's lives!

[rollinsuccess]

This is crazy now they need to go back and charge the people who investigated and falsely accused innocent men

[bustercrabbe]

You don't have to commit a crime to be found guilty in an American court of law.

[Ateyaaa]

Why they can NEVER go after the COPS...this is NOT RIGHT!

[anthonymartinez]

They knew he was innocent. Do people see how the system doesn’t care that you do life in order for them not to simply admit fault?

[PainandMotivation]

10 years in jail and you did not do it? That is crazy.

[WanderingRationalist]

So, did they ever find the person/people who actually did it?

12 years for a crime you did not commit is an injustice. I hope he is able to adjust to life on the outside.

The people who orchestrated the cover-up are still destroying our lives

[mikeblack]

Lawsuit time . 10 years lost. Pay up. Period

Kim Fox the states Attorney needs to start doing her job and needs to investigate why this happened and take responsibility for it . Chicago is a out of control war zone . Make very stiff mandatory jail time for anyone having a illegal gun in Chicago . Kim Foxx is the problem and the crime starts with her . The people shouldn't have to live in fear .

Tyrone never does anything bad, he's going to be shot by a teen within a few weeks anyways.

So now when do the judge and district attorney go to prison for doing this to them? They should lock away all judges, attorneys and cops that put away innocent people. Serve the same time you imposed on innocent people.

[EverTyy]

The fact I still remember watching that man face pop up on my grandma Tv on the news channel when I was 10 back in 2011 is crazy

[BLOCKBOIRD]

They can never solve deadly cases in Chicago. I saw a video of a man who beat a Double M and got on a podcast bragging about how he did it and how they couldn't prove it was him so that had to let him go.

[andrewordog]

10 years? Totally unacceptable. I hope they sue.

[tng_abu]

10 years in county waiting for trial is insane

[Criticalthinking]

Those men are owed 10 yrs of backpay Hope they have lawsuits in order.

[writtenhousesecurity]

Mom knows her son with the 15 felonies didn't do this one . Trust her 😂😂

[coryowens]

You should not speak to any police without an attorney. That is your right
