Rubin "Hurricane" Carter discusses the process of being proven innocent of murder after being in jail for over 20 years.

NOTE: Ballasy found out he was interviewing Carter at the last minute. He hopes to have the opportunity to interview him again so he can have more time to prepare.

  • i believe rubin carter. wether he is wrong or right however he would not have wanted his life to go anyother way. He is wether you like it or not an enlightened individual. i strongly believe that u cannot reach that stage of enlightement or consciousness with out confessing up to your sins. Regardless of what he has done in the past you cant let that undermine the things he says now because they are the truth and if you disagree you are simply wrong.

  • @GJT771 i would try to think of an appropriate response for you but knowing i would be just feeding you i'll just let you think what you want.

  • @ultradumbass Indeed, your username is certainly quite appropriate. Presumably you will continue to have a splendid time trolling imbecile. Excuse me, "dumbass."

    Undeniably, you're an exceptionally illuminated person that is making a remarkable contribution to the human race creating dissent. Well done man & keep spreading the positive energy & enlightenment!

  • Carter's defenders have seized on a few inconsistencies in the case, but if you look at the big picture, it fits together. He's guilty."

  • @TheJomogogo Can you read? Tell me where in my comment it says that judge Sarokin 'declared carter innocent'. Do you know the difference between declaring someone innocent and dropping the charges against them? There is a fucking MASSIVE difference. And this shit you keep on about saying he was up for parole so they just let him go, what is wrong with you? Do you know anything about the legal system at all? He was given three life sentences he was not up for parole!

  • @breathtest

    Judge Sarokin granted a third trial, that's it and that's all. He didn't "declare carter innocent" you stupid fool. Then they let him go because he was already up for parole. Go back and watch The Hurricane and believe all that shit if it makes you feel better. Or read The Hurricane Hoax for the real story.

  • @TheJomogogo Read the book Hurricane by James S Hirch, the trial was won in front of judge H. Lee Sarokin 'you stupid shit'. It looks like your the one who pays too much attention to the movie. And yes, the charges were definitely dropped because he was in jail and he won the trial which meant he went free.

  • @breathtest

    Hahahahaha you said he "won the case in front of Judge SAROKIN" YOU STUPID SHIT THAT WAS A MOVIE .

    Didn't happen. The charges weren't dropped, he was granted a third trial and they decided not to go for another trial after so many years and released him on parole you nignorant buffoon.

  • @TheJomogogo If the evidence was so 'over-fucking-whelming' then why did he win the case in front of judge Sarokin so that the charges were dropped. If you read some books you'd understand that in fact there is a lot of evidence in favour of carter. Such as the fact that he and artis were just about leaving a club when the murders happened, and so said many many people. And i will say it again, you are thick as shit if you think that in a case of triple murder the state would just say fuck it.

  • @breathtest

    Since Carter had a lifelong record of violent behaviour starting at age 12 and almost killed a man when he was 14, what makes you think he might be innocent? certainly not the evidence, which was over-fucking-whelming. So what do you base your feeling on? (Other than a retarded, he's black so it must be racism thing)
