Subramanyam Vedam, 64, was recently exonerated for murder after being sentenced to life in prison in 1983

A Pennsylvania man who was recently exonerated after spending more than four decades behind bars has now been taken into custody by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) and faces possible deportation to India.

Earlier this month, Centre county’s district attorney dismissed murder charges against 64-year-old Subramanyam “Subu” Vedam. However, shortly after his exoneration, Vedam was detained by ICE based on a 1988 deportation order tied to his now-vacated convictions.

      Since some corpo cheated the system to sell bad drugs we should totally allow criminals to sell drugs without restriction. Very smart

        Some people like drugs. So don’t force you beliefs on others. We have drug criminals because there is a demand. I don’t use any type of so called bad drugs, but that doesn’t mean I’m gonna shit on someone else’s parade. Fuck, weed is illegal because some black people smoked it in the jazz clubs back in the days and white dudes were upset their daughters like the jazz clubs. To each their own. What about not threading on others? Is it only okay when the laws don’t apply to your choices?
