Was it ever reliably shown that he was wrongly convicted or is it simply that some,including that judge,believe there was insufficient evidence..."beyond a reasonable doubt"...that he was guilty.That is...was there compelling evidence that he was in Cleveland...or in prison...or in church (with many unbiased witnesses to his presence there)...or in the hospital...when the murders happened? Or are there reliable accounts of one or more of the jurors saying "let's get that n*gger"? If any of those things are true then it's easy to see how he might have been...or how he was *clearly*...innocent.

Otherwise,I skeptical.

I checked his story out when the movie was released - it looked to me like he probably was guilty.
