Man Jailed For 28 Years After ‘Woman Dreamt He defiled Her’ To Gain Freedom Soon

A Colorado man who spent almost three decades in prison after a woman ‘dreamed’ that he defiled her may soon go free. Denver District Court Judge Kandace Gerdes overturned Clarence Moses-El’s 1988 conviction, after he has served more than half of his 48-year sentence.

The r*pe victim, a neighbour of Mr Moses-El’s, initially identified someone else as her attacker but later changed direction after his face allegedly came to her in a dream, while she was in hospital just a day after the cut.

His break came in December 2013 when another man, L.C. Jackson, sent him a letter in prison saying he couldn’t believe Moses-EL was accused of defiling the woman because he ‘had s*x’ with her at the same time that night.

Blood stains on evidence collected from the scene of the crime were re-tested last year and the results show that it actually belonged to another man who was subsequently identified by the victim as the assailant. Judge Gerdes has ordered a retrial for Mr Moses.
