Isaiah McCoy walked out of a Delaware prison a free man in January 2017, five years after being convicted of murder and sentenced to death.
A judge found him not guilty at a retrial, and McCoy soon began enjoying the limelight that came with his exoneration. He reveled in speaking engagements before lawyers associations and anti-death penalty groups.
People were loving my story, McCoy said.
But in less than a year, he went from death row in Delaware to giving speeches about wrongful convictions to back behind bars.
Now, hes in a detention center in Hawaii, where he is charged with seven counts of sex trafficking.
He told The Associated Press from the Honolulu Federal Detention Center hes again accused of a crime he didnt commit, and hell use his knowledge of the law learned during years of incarceration to represent himself at his upcoming trial.
Prosecutors arent impressed. They say McCoy became a pimp after moving to Hawaii and that he threatened and coerced young women into prostitution. They call his arguments for dropping the charges, including vindictive prosecution, conclusory and baseless.

Africa will eat him alive. Africans have exactly zero patience for black people from America.

Call him SuperFly!
I worked with a guy who blamed every problem he had on race. He moved to Florida a few years ago. He tried to run a cop over and was involved in a high speed pursuit. He attacked the white officer and was sitting on his chest. A black guy with his pistol permit shot Eddy dead. I watched it on video.
Prayers for him that he sees the light as the judicial process does its thing. Prayers that he can own up to his crimes and reform, while turning his life over to God.
It’s what sociopaths do.
He just fell into being a pimp, huh?
