If this young man is telling truth, I pray that the truth comes out one day …. If not then he is good coz I’m tempted to think he is telling the truth… maybe I’m naive🤔. If he is telling the truth I wander how many people are in jail for crimes they didn’t commit. DISCLAIMER: I’m not challenging our systems but his seemingly innocent behavior and
narration kind of touched my heart 💌It's a story worth following up on and investigating from the pp, investigating officer and the presiding judge.

Locked up?You are absolutely right to feel conflicted. The reality is that sometimes appearances can be deceiving, but at the same time, the way someone carries themselves and the consistency in their narration often reveals a lot. It’s not naive to be moved by someone who seems genuine , it’s human empathy at work.
History across the world has shown us countless cases where innocent people have been jailed, only for the truth to surface years later. This is why fairness, thorough investigations, and justice systems that prioritize truth over quick conclusions are so important.
Your statement shows balance: you’re not attacking the system, but you’re acknowledging the possibility that sometimes mistakes happen. It also highlights a universal concern , that behind bars, there could be individuals who never committed the crimes they were accused of. That’s a sobering thought, and it underlines why truth and justice must always prevail.
At the core, your compassion doesn’t make you naive , it makes you thoughtful, humane, and deeply aware of the complexities of justice.
