Will Grigg?s Liberty Minute
October 23, 2009
Two years, ago, West Virginia resident Megan Williams, a black woman, told police that she had been kidnapped and tortured by six white captors who beat and sexually assaulted her.
Three men and three women were arrested and strong-armed into plea bargain agreements that resulted in prison terms of up to 40 years.
Days ago, Miss Williams admitted that the entire story was a fabrication. The bruises on her face were inflicted by an abusive boyfriend. Her other injuries were self-inflicted. According to her attorney, Williams is admitting the truth, at the risk of prosecution, because she wants to ?right the wrong? inflicted on the six innocent people in prison.
However, the prosecutor who sent the six to prison insists that the convictions were sound, and that they should remain behind bars ? despite the fact that the supposed crime never occurred.
Remember: In contemporary America, one needn?t commit a crime in order to wind up in prison.
Let us take back the liberty wherewith Christ has made us free.
