Raymond Santana is one of the five young men falsely convicted in the 1989 Central Park jogger case. He was sentenced to prison based on flawed evidence but was later exonerated when the real perpetrator was identified, and DNA evidence proved his innocence. After his release, Santana became an advocate for criminal justice reform, working to address wrongful convictions and support others affected by the justice system. His experience highlights issues of racial bias and the importance of fair legal processes.
