Dean Cage spent 14 years in Illinois' prison system for a crime he did not commit. In 2005, The Innocence Project in New York took on his case and won his release on May 27, 2008 when DNA evidence established he could not have committed the crime for which he was convicted. Dean is still waiting to receive assistance from the state. A family man, Deans goals include spending quality time with his sons and fiancee, who supported him throughout his wrongful incarceration.

  • His life was stolen from him : (

    Our justice system is far from perfect

  • Law enforcement took away 14 years of this man's life. They were too busy trying to put someone in jail instead of doing their jobs thoroughly to find the real person who raped that poor girl. Is our Justice system becoming lazy, too scary to think about it :P
