Remind me why why Rubin "The Hurricane" Carter wasn't guilty of those murders

I'm having trouble- been listening to Bob Dylan's seminal masterpiece Hurricane, but in light of mainstream progressive media influence, I've been questioning the message of the song and might actually believe ol boy to be guilty based solely on the MSM support that has made his story biblical truth.

Anyone think Denzel regrets being involved in that film project?

Bob Dylan wrote a song about it explaining the whole thing. It was a setup.

Hurricane y Bob Dylan

If the song is accurate the cops just wanted him in jail. And most of us agree the cops are capable and willing.

Carter was a habitual liar, about pretty much everything

I would not be surprised if he was also guilty

A lot of these verdict revisions seem dubious to me. Oh, you've been sitting in Angola for 35 years, but some nun / Bob Dylan / who the frick knows says your innocent? And this isn't based on witnessing a contemporaneous trial lasting several days, but on newspaper articles read through a social justice filter? Please.

The story has mainstream support as it is told today. At the time, a Blackman had zero support from any establishment. His story is a true heroic truth over injustice. What has you jaded today is the establishments modern astroturf campaign to erase the past it can't defend.

His conviction was overturned in 1985.

Even Dylan believes he is guilty now

Or at least he isn't innocent and the story he spun was bullshite.

Good song though
