| Details | Lovely Jackson: “In the United States legal system, justice is supposedly blind. But that blindness was supposed to mean impartial, blind to race, wealth, or status. Instead, Lovely Jackson shows what happens when it remains blind to the truth. It is the story of how one man retained his sanity, and his sense of self, while spending 39 years in prison and on death row for a crime it seemed clear for the outset that he never committed. Discover the tale of Ricky Jackson, the longest imprisoned innocent man in American history.” — Douglas Kent, Head Juror Lovely Jackson is exonerated prisoner Rickey Jackson’s daring first-hand account of the psychology of survival and spiritual fortitude required to withstand 39 years of wrongful incarceration for a murder he didn’t commit. At the time of his release in 2014, Rickey was the longest wrongfully incarcerated person in U.S. history — spending 39 years on death row and in Ohio’s most dangerous prisons after being convicted solely on the coerced eye-witness testimony of a 12-year-old neighborhood paper boy. |
