Innocent and Wrongfully Convicted in Louisiana
Louisiana imprisons more people per capita than any state or nation in the world. When prosecutors secure wrongful convictions, they are rewarded with promotions, while law enforcement and prosecutors rarely face consequences for misconduct. In Louisiana, sheriffs, police, judges, and prosecutors operate within a system designed to target and destroy Black men and their families.
Historian Jim Aiello, author of Jim Crow’s Last Stand, explained that nonunanimous juries were used as a tool to “re-enslave Black men.” The intent was to convict as many as possible and send them to Angola, Louisiana’s prison farm, where convict leasing continued under another name.
Tony Hunter’s case is proof that this legacy of racism and injustice is alive today. Arrested in 2001 and convicted in 2004, Hunter was sentenced for a triple homicide without a shred of physical evidence—no DNA, fingerprints, footprints, or tire tracks connected him to the crime scene. His conviction rested solely on the fabricated testimony of three jailhouse informants who were promised leniency in exchange for lies.
These men falsely claimed Hunter discussed the murders with Glen Nelson, a man who had actually tried to kill Hunter two months before the triple homicide occurred. It defies reason that Hunter would confide in a known enemy. New evidence, including an affidavit from one of the State’s own witnesses, confirms it was all a jailhouse scam. The witness admitted the truth: Hunter never discussed the crime, and he was framed for the sake of reduced sentences.
Tony Hunter has maintained his innocence since his arrest on May 4, 2001, and his story has never wavered. He and his family are the true victims of a racist system that thrives on wrongful convictions. Louisiana remains, in truth, America’s last slave state. www.innocentmanconvicted.com
