A deeply apologetic judge officially dropped all charges Thursday against an innocent man he sent to prison for rape.
"I want to convey to you my personal regret in having participated, though unknowingly, in the injustice committed to you," Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Richard Carruthers told William McCaffrey, calling the wrong conviction "a catastrophe both for [McCaffrey] and for the criminal justice system."
McCaffrey's accuser, Biurny Peguero, 27, took back her damning rape allegations in August and confessed to perjury
Well, after he sent an innocent man to jail on the word of a liar, an apology more than makes up for it...doesn't it....
And they wonder why no one believes anyone who cries rape anymore...
