1. thank you for covering this injustice. 52 years is one hell of a long time to be locked up in a prison even if guilty, which apparently is not the case in this instance. Here's hoping that they are freed soon .

2. Heartbreaking case. Deeply appreciate the history and the back story on this case related to the BPP. It makes clear the evil intent of the state to stop Black progress, all the people not one class, by providing services to a people living in extreme poverty and terrorized by racist violence. People were criminalized and murdered for trying to help themselves, to help our people. Shameless tyranny and oppression! And so on point that comment about the meaninglessness of BLM. Police killings continue! Our struggle continues.

3. Looking for an hour with Ruchell McGee recently released after more than 60 years. Never gave up, still needs to say his words and countless people want to hear them. Hope to see that here!

4. So much injustice just like the Nazi Germany no different from the Nazi Germany the US criminal justice system and the police

5. What a shame that this happens.

6. Thank you for this. I was unaware of his case but sadly unsurprised by it.

7. Other then the evidence of some bomb ingredients on a jacket he wore in Vietnam, what other evidence did they have?

8. All American’s thoughts and feelings, are controlled. With the Drug War to violate all constitutional rights, protections and freedoms. Abolish the Drug Enforcement Agency. And Justice system. That won’t protect Americans rights to feel different and be different. Controlling all American’s thoughts and feelings: by genocide of their constitutional rights, protections and freedoms. With Construing to Disparage, to death. With American’s families, desperate, mentally Ill stress and suicidal. Genocide of Americans, to control how Americans feel and think. Unconstitutionally. Abolish the Drug Enforcement Agency.

9. Real Network News,
   First off, please let me thank You for airing this Broadcast Interview.
   I learned a LOT about The Black Panther Party from Larry Pinckney, a California I believe, Member Who was in prison in the 70s and 80s for trumped-up "charges".
   I especially admire The Black Panther's slogan or moto as Mr Pinckney presented it:
   "Talk is cheap. Action is Supreme. Serve The People with All o' Your Heart, Mind, Body and Soul."
   And then, of course, All o' The People say, "Right On!"

   The Panthers are I suppose, like me, militant You-Man (and You-Wiminz, too!) "racists". That is, because while there are many, many Ethnicities and Heritages amoung Us…, there is yet only one "race" of People, the You-Man race.
   The Rev'ren' Doctor Martin Luther King, Jr had a way of putting ideas across. He said,
   "When any One of Us suffers in-Justice anywhere, We ALL suffer. So, let Us Free The innocent People."
   An' All o' The People have to agree an' say, "Right On!"

14. Black males are the most exonerated in AmeriKKKa because this system is so rigged

15. … how bout Peltier or Assange ?!
    🙏🌹

16. David Rice and Ed Pointdexter the Omaha Two, are brilliant men who were unfairly locked up for police misconduct. They both assisted my mother as educators in educating inmates at the Nebraska Penal Complex. Out of 300 prisoners over 280 received their GED, in one year. My mother has long passed but these two men were part of her work, in the prison system.

17. I wonder what percentage of the prison industry slave system is innocent?
    Peace!
