My Dear Friends, Is Innocence Relevant?
First, I would like to thank everyone for visiting my website, and taking the time to support my efforts in clearing my name of this wrongful conviction by the Philadelphia Criminal Justice System. With your support, love and prayers my family and I have been working diligently to “Free Carmen Woods”! New supporters are needed and welcomed to keep this movement to “Free Carmen Woods “alive.

The following is an extremely intricate and stirring story and we hope that the testament of it can bring awareness to society and ignite some progressive activism. In 1982, I was wrongfully accused of murder. May Allah have mercy on the soul of the victim, Chester Laws, Jr. Although I did not commit this murder I was convicted and currently serving life without parole in prison. I have been incarcerated for the past 40 years of my life and still counting. Yes! In spite of all the Evidence of Innocence, my life and justice from the legal system has been put on hold.

The Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office has committed fraud on this case and tainted the legal system by failing to address new evidence which supports perjury, a mislead jury, judge, defense and misrepresentation of evidence.

Over the years, Homer Lane the only alleged (Eyewitness) affirmed this in different affidavits that he recanted in his trial testimony and through evidence of the following facts:
  1. Homer Lane explained what favors were given for his fabricated testimony.
  2. Mr. Lane did not explain how he was able to retrieve a stolen car back from police.
  3. New evidence discovered 28 years later is now “Time Bar” by the courts.
The new Draconian Law (Time Barred) states, “If you’re innocent or not, a defendant has a certain amount of time to get any new evidence to the courts or else the “Appeal Process” is over.” (See Time Bar)

These are just a few issues addressed. If anyone wants more information on other issues of this “Miscarriage of Justice” please continue to read the details and review videos. Then, ask yourselves! How can justice be served with a Time Bar law? And then ask yourselves, why must innocent victims suffer or are innocent victims relevant?
