How is this poor man being compensated by the 'justice' system? This is so sad. Also, since when does the Vatican dispense gold medals? And Jack Nicklaus is quite famous but certainly NOT infamous. Tsk!

And we complain and complain and are barely ever thankful. What a big achiever despite they rob precious years of his life.

Raana, He should have sued the prosecutors for whom he spend so many years in exile. You are hailing him..he lost his entire life for doing no crime. What kind of judiciary is this and how wretched are the lawyers and judges. Shame.

There are SO MANY MORE Valentino Dixons' throughout American prisons who are innocent but were taken away , given improper representation, then face immoral prosecutors who could care less about justice or innocence, they only care about their conviction rates , THEN have to face the corrupt Judge!! !

Sadly many over the centuries suffered the same injustices, even being executed. But no one to speak up for them like for Valentino.

MCA , This world has some amazing people and then unfortunately there are some absolutely horrible and evil people. I can't comprehend how people can hurt innocent and helpless people or animals. I could go on because I am going through something super sad and it involves my baby grandson. I am fighting it and I am surprised I have not flooded the whole world with tears. I have to hold on to faith in my Savior Jesus Christ and it's really hard sometimes. His time and way is perfect.

I DO wish people would learn the definition of the word "infamous." Jack Nicolaus is not infamous. Adding a negative prefix (un-, in-, a-) to a word alters the meaning of the word. Infamous is a bad thing.

Mr. Dixon's life is a prompt for each of us to look for that peaceful, forgiving, and unvengeful spirit in ourselves and others. I will search for his work and perhaps one day I will be among the "famous" people who are privileged enough to share in his gifts💜

Raana, You said it Perfectly! There are Soo many people out there who get away with doing horrific crimes and his life was taken for something he didn't do!

Lorraine , let's not get crazy. I mean, if we pay one person then we'd have to start paying for all these devastating mistakes. AND all those people who'd need to admit any wrongdoings or, possibly... they were guilty of stealing/destroying the most precious commodity in existence? That sounds way too reasonable.

In this world, in which we share. Many unjustly crimes go on without reprimand we as human beings should try to look out for one another better and sometimes a stranger with better knowledge is able to help us and our situation sometimes that's good people don't know that until the end like with this young man it is truly sad but it does happen thank God it was taken care of when it was.
