Man imprisoned for 28 YEARS after woman dreamed that he raped her to be freed after another man confesses
♢ Clarence Moses-EL was convicted in 1988 and sentenced to 48 years in prison for raping and assaulting a woman when she returned home from a night of drinking
♢ When police initially asked who attacked her, she named the man who later confessed
♢ More than a day after the assault, while in the hospital, the woman identified Moses-EL as her attacker, saying his face came to her in a dream
♢ Moses-EL has long claimed he was innocent
♢ But his efforts to appeal his conviction were unsuccessful, in part because Denver police threw away DNA evidence from the attack
♢ His break came in December 2013 when another man, L.C. Jackson, sent him a letter in prison
♢ The letter said he couldn't believe Moses-EL was accused of raping the woman because he 'had sex' with her at the same time that night'
this is the guy who was wrongly jailed because the woman dreamt the rape

A man imprisoned for 28 years after a woman said she dreamed that he raped her could be freed after a Denver judge overturned his conviction, saying he would likely be acquitted at a new trial because someone else confessed to the crime.

Moses-EL has long claimed he was innocent. But his efforts to appeal his conviction were unsuccessful, in part because Denver police threw away DNA evidence from the attack. Police destroyed body swabs and the victim's clothing despite a judge's order to preserve it for testing that could have confirmed Moses-EL's guilt or innocence.

My views on this topic:
And you guys dare try and say the woman should always be believed during these things and the man should be pushed and if not, it's sexist?
These kind of things happen all the time and need to be addressed.
You cannot believe what someone says during these things just because they're a woman.
The harsh, and sad, reality is that in most rape cases, there is zero evidence so you cannot automatically take somebody's side because of their gender.
1 in 11 of rape accusations are false in the US
The statistics are the same for the UK too
