Friday, January 18, 2013   10 Famously Exonerated Death Row
Inmates By Steve Takle, Best Career Counseling Degrees, 4
January 2013.  Each of the ten men on this list was wrongly
convicted, sentenced to death, and exonerated years later. We
can’t even begin to imagine the kind of psychological damage
spending time in prison must cause when you know that you’re
innocent but practically no one believes you. And all the while,
you’re waiting to die.  Even once they’re freed, the
rehabilitation process for such inmates must be emotionally
intense. In some sense, these men will never escape the stigma
attached to them due to the crimes of which they were wrongfully
accused. Yet with the right kind of counselling and guidance,
perhaps people subjected to such miscarriages of justice can
learn to let go, move on, and enjoy the rest of their lives.
