prognosis was grim. To walk or talk again seemed uncertain.

Kevin Strickland spent 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, making
him one of the longest wrongfully imprisoned people in U.S. history.
Strickland was convicted in 1979 at the age of 18 for the triple m*rder of three
people in Kansas City, Missouri.
His conviction was largely based on the testimony of a single eyewitness, who
later recanted, admitting she had been pressured into identifying Strickland.
There was no physical evidence linking him to the crime, yet he was sentenced to
life in prison without the possibility of parole for 50 years.
Despite maintaining his innocence for over four decades, Strickland’s appeals
for release were repeatedly denied.
