The legacy of #Chicago as the #wrongfulconviction capital of the nation is largely built on several cases involving bad cops repeatedly deploying the same coercive tactics. CPD Detective Reynaldo Guevara was one, and the fallout continues.

Dallas County officials declare a Black man executed in 1956 was wrongfully convicted Dallas County commissioners unanimously voted to posthumously exonerate Tommy Lee Walker of Venice Lorraine Walker's rape and murder in 1954.

Justice denied because of #race, a corrupt #criminaljustice system, or a #Klan-member #police officer is justice denied. The execution, 70 years ago, was a #wrongfulconviction & deprived a man of his father, a wife of her husband, and the victim's son of justice.
