3 life sentences for WATCHING a drug deal

[T3PO]

It’s been nearly 20 years since Clarence Aaron was put in jail for conspiring to distribute crack cocaine, and unless President Obama steps in, the 19-year veteran of the American prison system is expected to stay there for a while. A long while.

Aaron wasn’t buying, selling or even touching coke when cops busted the then 23-year-old college student in 1993. Instead Aaron was simply a witness of a plotted crack transaction and associate of the buyer and seller, who, unlike him, pled guilty and gave law enforcement their full cooperation. But despite lacking any criminal record at all, however, Aaron was sentenced to serve three life sentences behind bars for his role in a would-be drug deal. Neither President Clinton nor George W. Bush offered a commutation to kill the lengthy sentence during their combined 16 years in office, and new evidence reveals that there may have been a reason for that.

I'd have to know the detailed story to side.

Alot of people in jail can seem innocnet if you hear one side of the story.

3 life sentences...you was with a guy doing alot. I don't just "go along for a ride" with a friend under survellance with bricks or money and more than likely guns to sight see.

If this is the full story, that shows the flaws of our legal system.

simply speechless, the justice system is absolutely f-cked up, over here, a male nurse raped 3 kids in intensive care unit, he hasn't even put in jail yet, they took him out of investigation liable because he ''compained''

I agree, people in jail sometimes can be great at playing the victim. I would hope there would be something more to it than just this, crazy.
