Also: 30+ years for rape? While rape is a hateful crime, usually people don't get all that prison time for that.

That's what you get when you're poor, black and homeless?

The other unjustly accused guy, who was black but not poor and not homeless got much less time and went out of prison twenty years ago

He wasn't imprisoned for 30+ years. He got 7 years and was out after 5. He was, in his own words, 'locked up in [his mind]' for 30+ years.
