22 years in prison for a crime he did not commit!

The life of Rubin Hurricane Carter has taken many twists, from obscurity to acclaim and back again. Carters boxing career began in 1961, and his fast and furious style made him a crowd favourite. Five years later, while preparing for a World Championship fight, Carter was arrested for triple murder. Although steadfastly maintaining his innocence, he was convicted and sentenced to three life terms. In 1988 his 22-year-old indictment was finally dismissed. Carters experience has inspired the critically acclaimed film The Hurricane
Defending innocent people from wrongful convictions has become his lifes work.

9/11 was an inside job. All the ALLEGED terrorists were only ACCUSED, but still sent to prison.

Everyone watch "TERROR STORM 2ND EDITION" Great video clip...

Read The Hurricane Hoax, get the true story about Ruben Carter.

This movie was a complete work of fiction, Carter was a dangerous violent criminal his entire life, not the hero these assholes portray him as. There was never any doubt about his guilt.
