Man railroaded in murder rap must pay back child support for his 9 years on death row

Read the story here.

This story would be somewhat humorous for its Kafkaesque nature, if it wasn't such a tragedy because it is happening to a real person.

I actually called and talked to this guy this morning, found his name in the Houston phone book. Seemed like a nice enough fellow. He was just getting off work from his late-shift job at Houston Metro Transit. My plan is to set up a fund to help him out. Write a letter to the Houston Chronicle. Contact Texas Fathers for Equal Rights. Hell, if he agrees, we may end up on Larry King Live.

Unbelievable!
