Can you imagine going to prison for 10 years for a crime you didn’t commit? This high school football star and NFL hopeful, who was wrongly jailed for rape, was finally exonerated after the woman who accused him admitted she lied.
[Brian Banks, 26,] spent more than five years in prison and another five on parole. He had to register as a sex offender and was still wearing an ankle monitor during yesterday’s hearing.
“If I can do this, I can get through anything,” he told The Daily just after leaving a Long Beach, Calif., courtroom. “This was my hardest part, and, as they say, good things go to people who hustle while they wait.”
