29 Years For 13 Seconds: The Injustices of Justice

He was 16 years old when he witnessed two friends shoot a man in broad daylight. However, he refused to "snitch", or tell the police. So the DA sentenced him to life in prison. In 29 Years For 13 Seconds: The Injustices of Justice, we do more than tell the story of Vance Webster's tango with the system. It's really a story about all the people who shaped his life's journey - beginning with his parents' abrupt slit and all the impossible ne'er-do-wells that accompany an unstable family. Far from a victim, what's most remarkable about Vance is the lack of bitterness or rage for everything he's suffered. According to Vance, "Jesus saves in the eternity, prison saved me in the meantime."
