Because the man was black. Huh-doy. More, because statistically, black men are more often wrongly accused by an enormous degree:

Talk whatever you want, those numbers speak for themselves.

It doesn't matter. Unless you have proof that there was prejudice for this man's case, you are simply talking out of your ass.

The most idiotic part is that your link just further supports my argument, because those 158 black men wrongfully convicted are statistically insignificant compared to the hundreds of thousands of black people convicted. Those 158 represent less than 0.05% of black people convicted.

Are we going to cry "racism" everytime an african is convicted? Should we also cry "racism" when a white man is convicted? Or how about a latino? Or an asian?

It's nothing to do with single convictions and everything to do with systematic procedural problems that result in absolutely and disproportionately huge numbers of black men to be convicted, especially wrongfully. Those numbers in the previous post refer to black men whose exonerations have come as a result of the innocence movement. The problem is bigger than that: http://truthandjusticedenied.com/Wrongful_Conviction_Statist.html

You lack the cultural perspective (or statistical knowedge) necessary to participate in a discussion concerning racial factors in wrongful conviction.
