ACCUSED

A Louisiana man has been released from death row, becoming the 300th prisoner nationwide to be freed after DNA evidence showed he was innocent. Of those 300 prisoners, 18 had been on death row, according to lawyers from the New York-based Innocence Project. [source: Good News Network].

It is sad to be accused of something you have not done. It is tragic to be sentenced when you are really innocent.

Paul’s detractors were trying to do just that. They were making all sorts of crazy accusations against Paul, and Paul had to determine how to respond.
