Kobe might have just had a run in with a women who wanted attention/money/whatever. Remember the Duke case when people were calling for their blood?

OJ is as guilty as sin though.

The worst part isn't that OJ got away with it; it's that there are scores of innocent people out there rotting away in prison because they weren't blessed with OJ's fame and fortune.

There aren't that many innocent ppl in jail.

And it's a shame that with some things that an accusation is as good as a conviction. I don't feel either way about Kobe cause I didn't even follow that whole thing.

You can easily find anywhere from 300-400 documented cases of wrongful convictions within the last 20 years alone. Of those who were fortunate enough to be exonerated before dying/being put to death, most served at least 10 years in prison before being released thanks to DNA evidence or really stubborn lawyers. Now just think of how many more innocent people there could be still stuck in the system, given how much easier it is to get a conviction than it is to get one overturned. Is that "not that many?"

(400 / 2 000 000) * 100 = 0.02

.02 % of people (in prison) have been wrongfully imprisoned then, about?

one out of every 5,000 prisoners!

I bet it sucks to be wrongfully imprisoned, sure. But those numbers won't make me lose any sleep at night. Just like the number of Americans killed by falling vending machines doesn't make me lose sleep either.

P.S. That's a little better chance than one in a million that an american is wrongly imprisoned. (One out of 755,000)

It's kinda collateral damage. It sucks, but what are you gonna do?

Most people in prison are innocent. Just ask them.
