So why does the headline read "US awards African man $1million" when the man is actually African American? Journalists and their misleading headlines.

Localamos:


Judicial system goes beyond the walls of the court room. In this story, you can see the staggering figures of innocent convicts that would die. More worrisome is the racial profiling and discrimination that occurs within the American judicial system.

If you want to praise the courage of a few people to put hope in their judicial system, then that's fine. But if you tell me that theirs is 'sound' (syn: accurate, without blemish, perfect), then I think that would be going over the line.

No human system is perfect. That's why people exploit the systems unfairly.

Yeah u get the point I was trying to make no human system is perfect some are relatively fair while others are not.

dovelike:
Absolute rubbish!!! Spending that amount of years in prison doesn't mean sleeping and eating all day. What if he was sexually harrased there? Its very common. This can never happen to a white person. All those racist fuuls!

I like this American film...so interesting..

doskie:
theres a nairalander who goes by the pseudonym BRYAN360. if he reads a comment that is entirely your opinion, he will call you funny names like zombie and all. I just don't know what color the sky is in the place he was born. See the picture of an encounter i had with him. I was totally innocent.

Noted Sir

I disagree with you sir. 40years?? If Bill Gates had spent 40 years in jail, and after his release got paid 1million dollars, would he be the billionaire that he is?? They already killed the man's destiny, God save us from such things. Amen!!

If America were like our great country where human right were not value what would happen to innocent man?

shugaboy6102:

he was given a million dollars. What'd have happened if say na naija?

Akshow:
I think you lack comprehension skills except you are just being mischievous.

No i don't

The story said,"more than $1million" and not $1million.

it could be $1.5 million or more but less than $2million.

Please read again before concluding!!!

mtcheeeeew.Com. If it's 1.5 mill it will be clearly stated. Just a little over a million. And even if it is 2mill it's still to small a compensation for wasted forty years of one's existence.

Akshow:
Bullsheet! Just one million dollars for forty years? The compensation is very shabby. Forty years of his youthful life was taken for crying out loud! I'm pissed.

Seriously..

No..

Cos he is BLACK African American, the racism continues to play out.

Isoni:
This can only happen in a country with a sound judiciary system.

Here in Burkina Faso we all envy this man

"Sound judiciary system" sentenced an innocent man to almost 40years incarceration

40 years dats very long. But thank God he has been exonerated. Am sure there are some pple who died in prison for something they didnt do. May God help him use his remaining life happily.

if he is white it will be at least 1 million for every year spent.

SillyeRabbit:
More than 200 million naira. Baba God ooo.

. Amen to That!

$40,330 per year in jail and they gave him that amount. what if he wasnt paid, what would happen. there isnt anything like racist here. most people who fought for his release were whites. whites dont hate blacks, they just hate our behaviours. there are blacks who have more white friends than blacks in america and other countries.

some nigerians have spent more years and 5 naira has not been given to them. would you go fighting them. $1m is not small money. and hes the latest. who says you cant be what you want to be at age 60.

the man behind kfc , at what age did he start?

bakynes:

Rich you say? He might have made more than that or less than that in the 40 years, can the 1 million dollars compensate for no sex, no marriage, no children for 40 years?

I don dey..think am too...o
