In the "About me" section to the right and down I have included the names of persons whom I have tremendous respect for.

OUR "JUST US" SYSTEM SCREWS UP AGAIN



Keith Allen Harward has sat in jail for the last 33 years for crimes he did not commit. The extent of the devastating "evidence" against him were bite marks on one of his victim's legs. You heard that right, bite marks. While fingerprints have a significant scientific basis neither facial characteristics nor bite marks do. There are those however that believe that skin colour is just dandy as in if you can't catch the right black man for a crime then any other will do nicely. Of course none of those heroes whether jurors, judges or police would ever publicly admit to that.

Mr. Harward was convicted of murdering a man in 1982 and then raping his wife. It turns out that The Innocence Project obtained DNA which exonerated Mr. Harward while implicating a now dead ship mate of his. Both men were sailors in the U.S. navy. This travesty of justice took place in Virginia and simply adds to the growing list of wrongful convictions in both Canada and the U.S.. I wonder how many executed inmates in Texas especially were not guilty of their crimes? I wonder who the winners are in all these wrongful convictions? I expect the winners are not only the guilty parties but also individuals within the "Just Us" system who achieved career advancement on the backs of the innocent wrongly convicted of crimes.
