- A wrongfully convicted man was released from prison after nearly 20 years. Marvin Haynes was 16 years old in 2004 when he was convicted of killing a man in a flower shop in Minneapolis. The Great North Innocence Project took on his case and challenged the eyewitness testimony, claiming that Haynes did not fit the description of the suspect originally described. A judge agreed that the testimony was unreliable. Inside Edition Digital’s Mara Montalbano has more.
being ACCIDENTLY convicted is ONE thing, being INTENTIONALLY targeted by corrupt DA is another matter altogether
Let me guess, the description was "black" 🤨
I know right? Sooner and later, they will soon face their own demons for sending a innocent person in prison for crime he didn't commit or do anything dangerous. I feel sorry for him.
@@sonicgalaxy27 that is me ! I DID commit a crime ! Contempt of Cop, LOL
Every conviction is deliberate, the standard of proof is without a reasonable doubt, and, the police and Prosecution lied to meet it.
Hope he gets some kind of compensation for this. Completely awful, happy he’s free!!
He probably will but no amount of money will take away the time and tramua of what happened
I hope he sues the living daylights outta them . 20 years unbelievable

@@CTBEDARD 🤣 I have no clue I noticed that as well
@@CTBEDARDI love you chris
I can’t even imagine spending one day behind bars for something I didn’t do. But 20 YEARS?!?? Bless him. He seems to have a positive outlook for his future and I’m here for it .
Now the person that convicted him should spend 19 years in jail. Sad thing is this happens all too often and there is no consequences for the DA.
I know right? Sooner and later, they will soon face their own demons for sending a innocent person in prison for crime he didn't commit or do anything dangerous. I feel sorry for him and I bless him so much for his release.
And the real criminal is out and about
This is amazing but the truth is there will never be justice for cases like this one. Nothing will ever never be close to making it up for 19 years in prison.
The bad news is what did prison do to him because we know it changed him mentally!
“All I wanna do is move forward, and get my life back.” Not bitter?? I’d be ready to sue and get some compensation. But I’m so proud that he is level headed and ready to reclaim his life. At least he’s only 36
Guys just imagine how strong he is !!! Imagine knowing that u didnt do it , and ur still in prison . He is strong and positive af ! God bless him and his family
And he was imprisoned at a young age too
*you
@@joshuavang5449 But much, mate.
So sad.. nothing can buy time.Thank God hes out♡
Like Eddie Murphy said “Seventy-five years. That's how much time you get if you're lucky. Seventy-five years. Seventy-five Winters. Seventy-five Springtimes. Seventy-five Summers. And Seventy-five Autumns. When you look at it like that, it's not a lot of time, is it? Don't waste them”.
$10,000,000 settlement! This man did not deserve this. No one does. My heart breaks for him. God bless him.
how about at least 10 times this. Just saw in the news that 2 women were emotionally scarred a few years and received 75. They were not in jail. Their families not without them.
Police should investigate to arrest and not arrest to investigate
They did. It’s the court system that failed him
Most Times its always guilty until proven innocent
Right? Sooner and later, the DA will soon face their own demons for sending a innocent person in prison for crime he didn't commit or do anything dangerous. I feel sorry for him.
Imagine being 16 and wrongfully accused of murder with a 19 year sentence. 16!! And they say in North America it’s “innocent until proven guilty.” (Especially for a case this big like wtf) I am in no way whatsoever trusting that statement anymore lmao💀
Now that the radical corrupt left controls the Justice system, it's "Guilty until proven innocent."
Ok that's good but what about the person who accused him?? What punishment will they deserve?? 🤔
Now make this man a millionaire
20 years... thats crazy... good for him he endured life in prison
Everyone in the footage got their hopes up and now he’s gonna spend time with his family for Christmas.
Hope he can live a happy and healthy life with his family going forward. Lucky for him he is still only 36. He’s still young and I hope he’s living the best life.
That's nice, and I wish the best for him and his family. Also, I feel like when you're found innocent, after wrongfully being accused ,they should give you one million dollars for every year you're in prison. Money isn't everything, but this should teach them to get it right the first time.
Exactly. They got so much to learn.
all those years down the drain. thats just awful
What did his criminal record look like before he went to prison?
No different to yours.
😢😭😭 Bravo Marvin! Sending lots of love from South Africa. 🙏🤗😍😘😘🥰
What a smile, man doesn't even seem upset about it just looks happy that hes finally free
*20 years later*
Courts: "Oops, my bad"
1:12 this part goes crazy
I don’t know why they take eye witness testimonies to heart when people’s memories aren’t reliable
The state should pay him 19 million dollars, $1 million dollars for each year that he spent in prison 🤔
So you waste 20 years of a man's life just to tell him he doesn't look like the guy in the description
Happens a lot, people going down although they don’t match the description.
Dude has strength and the courage to succeed the rest of his life.
19 years, damn
Eddie Murphy -Seventy-five years. That's how much time you get if you're lucky. Seventy-five years. Seventy-five Winters. Seventy-five Springtimes. Seventy-five Summers. And Seventy-five Autumns. When you look at it like that, it's not a lot of time, is it? Don't waste them.
Yes he comes out and finds a advanced world , with new technology etc . I hope he gets along with it
Glad he has so many people who believed in him and waiting for him on the outside. You can tell they still kept up with him in prison. ❤
Agreed. At least some people like his friends and family got much kindness and compassion unlike the DA.
The most shocking thing is that this could have been solved on the same day he was wrongfully convicted if they actually looked at the evidence
Wow what an incredible story he has a good heart most people would have went crazy after that🤔
He's getting paid i guarantee that
Imagine the amount of other people who lost years of their lives over crimes they did not commit. Scary.
He's not innocent he just got lucky they found a loophole like other people do this case is nothing special
You sure got that right ! Be nice to See some "street justice now."
He looks like a Good man.. a strong man with a Lot of Wisdom.. I wish him the best. I'm sure he will make the most of the rest of his life
Criminal how this happened
SMH. Hope he lives a long life.
One word: give me my moneyyyyy😂😂😂
May the Lord release him from the animosity that he may harbor because it can win over you if you let it.... also may the Lord richly bless him in a law suit of the grandest scale. 🙏
Did they ever catch the real murderer?
"Challenged the eye witness testimony" ? They could've done this 19 years ago wtf
I just realized for every innocent conviction there’s someone who got away with a crime and living free….
Literally I wanna see the evidence to this man being the accused one, like if they have that kind of proof then why not use it to find the actual culprit?
@@thedman7305 the evidence for conviction is usually the witnesses who give the final push
Fantastic hes out deeply sorry he had to go through this
im19 cant imagine having my whole life behind bars
This guy lost his entire life...he will live with this trauma forever. How horrible.
What a shame !!! Only in Murdersota !! Convicts set free and cops prosecuted !!!
It's not a gift, it's an INJUSTICE!!!
Wish the state was held responsible for this
Painful
Dude, this is gonna be his best christmas ever.
He should get a MINIMUM of $10 million for each year he was there but not even that will bring back the time he lost being away from his family.
This man has been in prison for more years than I have been alive. That is freaking scary!
Sentence those detectives to 20 years in prison
He was just a child. Damn, he lost his entire life.
Omg thank God he's free. ❤ that's so sad he lost so many years 😢
Just terrible. Glad he’s finally free.
I feel this happens way more than it should
19 years hellll nooo you better pay that men that is correct the judge needs to go to jail for 40 years
My entire life this man has been locked up. May the best be upon him
God Bless Him!
I hope that he gets compensation for time served. I am so sorry sir for your wrongful doing. Congratulations sir on getting your freedom back.
Judge down the line should do 19 years
God Bless You!
Live your best life, Marvin!!!!!
"We put a man in jail back then. Oh he's out already? Eh, either way we get paid"
I'm so sorry, brother. We all failed you.
Imagine what his mom first thought when she saw her 16 year old boy as a grown man.
Pls tell me that the state will re-compensate this financially for every single day and night he had to spend imprisoned !
One of the reasons i wouldn’t wanna be a corrections officer is having to work with corrupt coworkers
God Bless 🙌 🙏....
Horrible
Sooner and later, the DA will soon face their own demons for sending a innocent person in prison for crime he didn't commit or do anything dangerous. I feel sorry for him.
This happens far too often... but people still wanna boot lick no matter what! smh
Sue!!!!!!
20 years wasted
I hope he can adjust to life outside prison. The world has changed a lot in 19 years.
Thank god!
That’s unbelievable Praise god to his release. Wow
Bless him!
19 years in the slammer...that's a long time !
should pay this guy 19 million dollars
🙏🏽✌🏽🌹 for healing 🙏🏽
He pretty much served the entire sentenced since they didnt have solid proof
20x year of his life wasted and he is still grateful!
thats just wrong
That's like 40% of your life gone... And you only have one
Can you imagine if he actually did it and one day he got out and was like ohhhh shiet LOL
this man was in prison longer than ive lived and thats shocking.
Hes so positive ❤❤
God i truly pray that you continue to guide this man through life....🙏🏽
19 years serving someone else's sentence 😢
When will this stop being wrongfully convicted? No amount of money if he gets compensated will amount to the time he and others has done for being wrongfully convicted.
Congratulations ✨🎉🎈
This is crazy.i hate to say it like this...but he is still young and I hope he makes the best out of his freedom. Sad that it has to be this way.
Please sue the ish out of them
Sad sitting in prison for so long being innocent
Do they compensate these unfortunate people in some way he has a large family but if he didn't and he was in his sixties he might be being released to homelessness unemployment do you know what I mean. I sure do hope they give him a nice fat check nothing can buy time, it will surely help his clock move forward
I think they have to file a lawsuit
Blessings
PAY THAT MAN!!!
