The Spaniard who was wrongly accused and stayed 3 years in the Death Row in Tampa is being free today.
Joaquin Jose Martinez lived in Miami. He was accused of killing a couple. He was innocent but cops "faked" proves against him. His lawyer did a horrible job and he was condemned to die. His parents asked for help to Spaniards who gave donations that reached 60 millions of pesetas so his parents could hire a good lawyer.
Of course money talked and he is free now.
It broke my heart hearing the grandmother saying that she thought that Americans were animals because they wanted to kill her grandchild and nobody (Americans) moved a finger to save him and that not even newspapers or TV cared about him.
How many of you knew about this?
