Jeffrey Clark has just won a record $24.35 million settlement in Kentucky, after spending half his life in prison for a crime he did not commit.
In 1995, he was convicted of the alleged “satanic murder” of 19-year-old Rhonda Sue Warford. The reality is that authorities manipulated evidence and dates with white-out to destroy his alibi, unfairly linking him to dark rituals and animal sacrifices.
After more than 22 years behind bars, the Innocence Project managed to prove his innocence in 2016. Most disturbing is that, while Jeffrey lost his youth, the real killer remains free after three decades. Do you think a multimillion-dollar sum is enough to compensate for the theft of half a life in a cell?
