Free: Ricky Jackson, 57, also spent 39 years behind bars for the murder, having been convicted on the testimony of a witness who now says his story was 'all lies'

They say 'angry black man'.  How can you justify 39 years of one's life wasted away in on death row, serving a crime you know nothing of.  The Police made the eye witness to lie against these innocent 2 men. Is it fair? Because of their skin color?

"The dramatic turnaround came after Vernon, now 52, recanted his testimony, saying that police officers coerced him into testifying and gave him details of the case.
Changing his account in 2013, he said: 'All the information was fed to me - I don't have any knowledge about what happened at the scene of the crime', Cleveland.com reported
