After 21 years, an innocent man was released from prison. "Behind the wall, behind the barbed wire, a week is like a month and a month is like a year,” Terrance Lewis describes about life behind bars.Lewis was wrongfully arrested in December of 1998.“Living that life every day for 21 years was beyond a hardship," he says.Lewis was 17-years-old when he was arrested in connection with a murder. Two years later, a jury deemed him guilty and he went to prison."It was alleged that I was a participant in a robbery, a botched robbery that went wrong," he explains. "And they felt me guilty of second-degree murder, which was a felony murder, meaning that the allegation of me being there. I was given a life sentence for practically being in the house when the murder occurred,"A witness, who admitted later in court that she was high at the time, gave false information. Her statements sent him behind bars, forcing him to leave his family, including his 1-year-old son."He's a grown man now; he's 21," Lewis says. "I wind up spending 21 years trying to convince the court, trying to convince anyone who would hear my cries and my grievances that they had an innocent man in jail."In Pennsylvania, a life sentence is imposed without the possibility of parole. However, Lewis didn't give up hope."I had to keep on keeping on," he says. He took matters into his own hands, representing himself. When he got to the court door, the judge insisted on appointing him an attorney. This time, it was David Laigaie. However, it wasn't until 10 years later that Terrance was finally released. In 2012, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled automatic life sentences for juveniles were unconstitutional."The judge granted Terrance a new trial because his due process rights had been trampled, the district attorney's office withdrew the charges, and the judge then discharged Terrance because there were no live charges against him," attorney David Laigaie says."We are very happy to see my nephew home after 21 years. We was heartbroken," Judy Waters, Lewis' aunt, says. Since the day he got out, Terrance has been bombarded with love from people he hasn't seen for decades."This is my high school friend. We grew up together," Lewis says, while hugging his friend Richenda White. "I haven't seen her. When was the last time I saw you? Since you was 18."The beautiful reunions are no secret to neighbors. "He can get his life back and that's more than anything anybody can ask for," one of Lewis' neighbor says. "Life, ya know what I’m saying? And freedom." Lewis is now a free man, nostalgically visiting places where he holds fond memories and re-introducing his taste buds to the food of his childhood.The world in 1998 is very different from the world today. “It's foreign to me. It's different. The world is different. Downtown Philadelphia is completely different," he observes. "Only thing that's not different, for the most part, which is sad, is my neighborhood. My neighborhood is still the same."This is why the crime is so prevalent in my community, because they don't have nothing; it's just torn down. There's not much here, as far as for the kids or the youth."Lewis' experience and the state of his neighborhood has inspired him to make a difference.He plans to keep on fighting to make sure what happened to him doesn't continue with other innocent people."I'm gonna be a voice for the voiceless. I'm gonna hopefully bring into existence some type of change and I'm going to use my journey as a catalyst to bring about it, because it's needed. I'm living proof that it's needed."Styled by a former cellmate, getting a haircut has become a symbol of freedom."We could only get a haircut once a month," Lewis says. As he settles into modern-day life, he can finally focus on his future. He plans to get a degree in criminal justice and was offered a job as an attorney's paralegal, a job Laigaie thinks he's well cutout for."He keeps me on my toes. In the 10 minutes you get on a phone call with a prisoner he'd ask me two dozen hard questions about the law and about the facts," Laigaie says.Both Terrance and Laigaie agree great changes are already happening in the justice system, but there's still work that needs to be done."Terrance's case, and many others like Terrance, should prove to people that while our system of justice is good," Laigaie says. "It isn't perfect, and they should always keep in mind that mistakes are possible, and mistakes need to be fixed and corrected."Lewis plans to the motivation for that change using his optimism to push him forward."Don't lose hope," he says. "Put your best foot forward and constantly pound on the door. Somebody gonna hear you."********************If you'd like to reach out to the journalist for this story, email elizabeth.ruiz@scripps.com 4806

A New York appellate court ruled Thursday that a defamation lawsuit brought against President Donald Trump by a former "Apprentice" contestant can move forward.A lawyer for Trump said he plans to appeal the decision.Trump had appealed a lower court's ruling last year that allowed the case to proceed, arguing that the Constitution's Supremacy Clause bars a lawsuit against a sitting president in state court because it would interfere with his duties.Mariann Wang, the lawyer for the plaintiff, Summer Zervos, argued that a president is not above the law and said the US Supreme Court's ruling in Clinton v. Jones backs up her argument that Trump can be sued in state court.Judges in the appellate division of the first judicial department agreed with Zervos, saying the Supreme Court's decision "did not encroach upon the exercise of the executive powers of the President" and that the Supremacy Clause was "never intended to deprive a state court of its authority to decide cases and controversies under the state's constitution."Zervos is suing Trump for defamation after he publicly called her a liar following her claims in October 2016 that Trump sexually assaulted her a decade earlier."We are very pleased that the First Department has affirmed once again that (Trump) 'is not above the law,'" Wang said in a statement Thursday. "The case has proceeded in the trial court and discovery continues. We look forward to proving to a jury that Ms. Zervos told the truth about Defendant's unwanted sexual groping and holding him accountable for his malicious lies."Two of the five judges dissented to part of the ruling, and cited the majority's interpretation of the constitutional issues at hand as a reason.In a statement, Trump's attorney Marc Kasowitz laid out his plan to appeal the latest decision."We believe that the well-reasoned dissenting opinion by two of the five justices, citing the US Supreme Court decision in the Clinton v. Jones case, is correct in concluding that the Supremacy Clause of the US Constitution bars state courts from hearing cases against the President while he or she is in office," Kasowitz said. "We will seek to appeal the majority decision to New York's highest court, the Court of Appeals, which we expect will agree with the dissent." 2291

A second person has experienced sustained remission from HIV-1, according to a case study to be published Tuesday in the journal Nature. Effectively, some scientists believe that the "London patient" has been cured of the viral infection, which affects close to 37 million people worldwide.The new case report comes more than 10 years after the first case, known as the "Berlin patient." Both patients were treated with stem cell transplants from donors who carried a rare genetic mutation, known as CCR5-delta 32, that made them resistant to HIV. The London patient has been in remission for 18 months since he stopped taking antiretroviral drugs."By achieving remission in a second patient using a similar approach, we have shown that the Berlin Patient was not an anomaly and that it really was the treatment approaches that eliminated HIV in these two people," said 882

A transformer explosion at a power plant in Queens temporarily lit up the New York City skyline in a brilliant blue Thursday night.But despite the eerily glowing color, an alien invasion it was not.Instead, the light came as part of a brief electrical fire after a "couple of transformers tripped offline" at the intersection of 20th Avenue and 32nd Street in Astoria, Con Edison spokesman Bob McGee told CNN.The issue caused a transmission dip in the area, and Con Edison crews responded with the Fire Department of New York, Con Edison said.The incident is under control and no injuries have been reported, the FDNY said. The explosion was determined to be a non-suspicious equipment malfunction, according to a tweet from the NYPD 114th Precinct.There are no significant reported power outages anymore, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said."No injuries, no fire, no evidence of extraterrestrial activity," the 920
