Lee Harris spent 33 years in prison on a murder conviction before winning back his freedom. Death cut short his dreams for the final chapter of his life.
The headline is really an odd convoluted way of saying “Man dead after being released from prison.” I suppose they’re tyring to make ti seem like he was some kind of angel who was wrongly convicted and unfairly dropped dead when released.
But he himself said he wasn’t an angel and in fact was a petty criminal (at best) and possibly involved in a murder (at worst). So while it’s sad he may have been wrongly imprisoned for so long it’s hard to feel bad for his passing away. I mean, he didn’t have good chances anyway and his life was going to end in prison anyway at some point.

That last sentence took quite the logic leap there didn’t it?
