After A Wrongful Conviction, One Black Man Is Suing Everyone Involved In His 8 Year Incarceration

Emmanuel Fair is one of the dozens of wrongfully convicted Black men in the United States every year.

After 8 years in jail with no conviction, Emmanuel Fair is finally free. In 2008, Fair was named as the lead suspect in a murder case following a party that ended in the sexual assault and strangulation of a 24 year old Indian woman named Arpana Jinaga. Jinaga was one of several hosts of a Halloween party that took place between several apartments, including her own, in the Valley View Apartment complex located in Redmond City, Seattle. Following the murder, local authorities zeroed in on Fair due to him being the only Black man at the party, and his past criminal record. According to reporting by Rolling Stone “based on more than a thousand pages of case files and legal documents,” Fair was arrested in 2010, and was housed in the King County jail for eight years, seven months, and 14 days without ever being convicted of a crime.

“I’ve never seen a worse case,” says Corinne Sebren, one of Fair’s lawyers. “There’s very little justice left to salvage.”

But Fair is going after it all, suing everyone responsible for keeping him wrongfully imprisoned for so long. Fair filed a lawsuit against the county, the city of Redmond, and the Redmond Police Department. Fair also filed a lawsuit against Detective Coats, the lead detective on the case who after reviewing photos from the party and noticing that Fair was the only Black man present, said he looked like “an outsider” and seemed to have it out for him from the very beginning.

Fair’s lawsuit claims the detectives on the case “ignored and failed to gather evidence that did not align with their theory of the case,” and almost nine years later, he was released.

He shouldn't be at the party in the first place if he hadn't committed a crime. I'm sure the Mekas at the party murdered her and make it seems he's the suspect.
