Man Reunites With His Pup After Being Exonerated

in prison •  7 years ago 

Her name is " Innocent " and he raised her his last nine months in prison.

In 1979, Malcolm Alexander was convicted of a crime he did not commit. Due to this wrongful conviction he was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Out of his life sentence he was in prison for thirty-eight years.

During his time one of his friends had a dog who had given birth to a litter of 10 in where Alexander adopted one. He chose to call her " Innocent ".

She is a beauty and in the video below you can tell how tight their bond is and the love they have for one another. Being reunited with what some of us call our babies or kids is a beautiful moment and even more precious when it's shared with the world.

I can't even imagine how sad I would have felt if I were in his shoes, leaving a place I never should have been in without the one thing that I have unconditional love for in the unfortunate circumstances he was in. Thankfully he was proven innocent by DNA testing and reunited the following day by the volunteers for the Innocent Project.

Almost 40 years of his life, his future and happiness was unjustly lost in the prison. His story has become famous. He became a militant against judicial errors. Thank you for showing us dear friend @joseph

DNA testing has absolved hundreds if not thousands of men wrongly convicted of rape charges. So happy for this man! He should be compensated a couple of million dollars, so he won't have to worry about money for the rest of his life. I know that it won't take away all the suffering and loneliness that he endured for 38 years though. He is a good kind man and we hope he will have peace and happiness for the rest of his life.

Justice is often unjust, but when you act in good faith late or temper things are arranged, it is a real shame that it took almost 40 years to fix.
There is nothing genuine about the love that an animal provides.
Thank you very much dear friend @joseph for sharing this news
you seo a beautiful weekend

Good blog ..
I am really appreciate to see this post ...
Carry on. best of luck dear 😊

So the company of innocent helped him to prove himself innocent. Feeling sad that 4 decades of man was passed due to poor judgement. Thankfully at the ends both are happy.

I can imagine people wrongly convicted and how they try to put their life together again, being away from everything for such a long time wasn't easy. Good to know he got Innocent after everything, he is close to the dog

38 years lost, for a crime and he was innocent, this is so bad forhim, at least de has the opportunity to life the rest of his days as a free man.

Cute dog

Innocent is a beauty. I had a black lab growing up. They know how to love.

I love dog~♪ワンちゃんかわいい

Animals are the closest and most devoted friends of a person. They are more sensitive and loyal to people. They are ready to be from the very beginning, and some of us do not understand this ... and the animals are on the street.

Just showing you some love
