Reported 8 months ago
Kerry Max Cook, a 68-year-old man from the US, was falsely accused of murder 47 years ago. Despite claiming innocence, he was sentenced to death twice by the court. After serving 20 years in prison, he was finally acquitted by the Texas Criminal Court and proven to be a victim of wrongful imprisonment. Cook's fingerprints were found at the crime scene, leading to his initial conviction, but further investigation revealed that evidence had been fabricated and withheld by law enforcement. Despite being exonerated, Cook cannot recover the 47 years of suffering he endured.
