On this date, December
2, 1999, an African American man by the name of Timothy Brian Cole, died in
prison due to an asthma attack. He was actually wrongfully convicted of raping
a fellow student in 1985. Sadly, a wrongfully convicted person had died in
prison. I feel sincerely sorry for Cole and his family, I wished that he could
have live and be released from prison. I will post about him from Wikipedia, before giving
my thoughts. Keep in mind, as much as I have empathy and sympathy for murdered
victims and their families, I feel for innocent people who have died in prison
too. Please go to this blog post to learn more.
