A former high school football star, once bound for the NFL, has been freed after spending six years in prison for a crime he didn’t commit. At 18, he was falsely accused of rape—an accusation his accuser admitted this week was a lie. Now 24, he wept in court as the judge cleared his name, saying, “I can never get that time back.”
His story has ignited outrage and calls for reform, highlighting how easily a life can be derailed by false accusations. While supporters see him as a symbol of strength, he’s focused on rebuilding his future and using his voice to push for change.
