Such a heart wrenching story. frown That poor family at least gets closure. What a darling little boy.


Here in CA the story of a man who served 10 years for a rape he didn't commit when the victim friends him on facebook after he was released from prison. uhwhat

Brian Banks, now 26, pleaded no contest 10 years ago on the advice of his lawyer after a childhood friend falsely accused him of attacking her on their high school campus.

In a strange turn of events, the woman, Wanetta Gibson, friended him on Facebook when he got out of prison. During a meeting later with him, Gibson said she had lied; there had been no kidnap and no rape and she offered to help him clear his record, court records state.

But she reportedly refused to repeat the story to prosecutors because she feared she would have to return a $1.5 million payment from a civil suit brought by her mother against Long Beach schools.



Here's the whole story:
