PHILADELPHIA, PA - HEADLINE NEWS THE MAKING AN EXONEREE PROJECT

Muti Ajamu-Osagboro, aka, Muti General High Priest, has spent the past 42 years in prison despite two of his co-defendants recanting their testimony in 2003. These men claim that the Philadelphia Homicide Unit threatened and coerced them into lying to convict Muti while they were juveniles. Anna Salvatore, Mikayla Merin, and Clara McWeeney from Princeton University, along with Tashay Campbell from Georgetown Law, reinvestigated the case through the Making An Exoneree program and helped Muti build a parole application, which was ultimately granted. Learn more about his case ahead of Muti's pending release. It's now the year 2025. General Muti has been out on parole for almost 2 years.

Robert "Sugar Bear" Lark was on death row for 38 years and remains in jail in the state of Pennsylvania. The events of an accused murder, trial, and conviction that put a man behind bars is not the story that is in the 'Thin Blue Lie' movie - a 2000 television film directed by Roger Young and starring Philadelphia Inquirer reporter Jonathan Neumann (Rob Morrow), who, along with his partner Phil Chadway (Randy Quaid), for exposing Philadelphia mayor Frank Rizzo (Paul Sorvino) and the Philadelphia Police Department for corruption (observing the years 1976-1978) is in the movie. It was released on August 13, 2000 on Showtime.
According to the articles, suspects were beaten and tortured in interrogation rooms, as well as in many cases murdered, in an effort to meet the high quota of criminal cases solved by Philadelphia detectives. Neumann and Chadway met extreme opposition from the police department, working amidst phone tappings, apartment ransackings, and threats of death and bodily harm.
However, the above-mentioned reference about the methods used by mayor Rizzo and the Philadelphia Police Department for corruption success is in the story (allegedly) that has been told in the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County, Appellee, v. Robert LARK, Appellant case, 1985.

Throughout the movie, Neumann faced a number of ethical dilemmas. First, most of his colleagues did not think that he should pursue claims of torture and death from suspects and a few police even; the city's crime level was at an all-time low, and some people felt that to question Rizzo's police policies would put the city's safety in jeopardy. Second, when interviewing victims of police brutality, Neumann had to assure the frightened victims that they would not be harmed by talking to him, when in fact, they had been threatened by police and warned against talking to and/or cooperating with reporters - may result in repeated jail lockup or even their death. Third, Neumann had to find one or more detectives willing to essentially betray a fellow officers in order to substantiate his claims.
In the case of Robert Lark, aka Sugar Bear, from West Philly and North Philly Street-life upbringing, people felt that to question police polices, City of Philadelphia, district attorney policies, City of Philadelphia and court of common pleas judges polices, City of Philadelphia practices would put the city's safety in jeopardy.
And the cops, the DA and the judges have no remorse over (allegedly) framing an innocent man and almost getting him executed - ongoing, once again.

Philadelphia Front Page News Justice Brief: Pennsylvania Justice System - Under Shapiro, half of clemency recommendations remain unsigned Forward news by Spotlight PA frontpagenews1@yahoo.com

Philadelphia Front Page News Justice Brief: Pennsylvania Justice System - Under Shapiro, half of clemency recommendations remain unsigned Forward news by Spotlight PA frontpagenews1@yahoo.com 

  

Above: Governor, Josh Shapiro, Pennsylvania. 

HARRISBURG — In his first two years as governor, Josh Shapiro has signed about 50 percent of the clemency applications recommended to him by the Pennsylvania Board of Pardons.

During Gov. Tom Wolf’s second term, a reenergized Pennsylvania Board of Pardons received and recommended more applications for approval than it did under any prior governor since 1997.

Wolf granted more than 1,600 applications during this period, double the number he signed during his first term and nearly all of the applications recommended to him by the board.

While under Shapiro’s administration, the board has taken steps to improve the process for people seeking second chances. But he has thus far been slower to sign the applications reaching his desk.
