Joe Ligon, maloljetnik s najdužim zatvorskim stažom u SAD-u, nedavno je izašao iz zatvora u kojem je proveo punih 68 godina.

Kako je rekao novinarima BBC-ja, bio je i ostao samotnjak, izmješten iz društva i bez previše prijatelja, pa mu je u neku ruku odgovarao i život u ćeliji. Odrastao je s bakom i djedom u Alabami, s 13 godina se preselio u Philadelphiju i živio s majkom medicinskom sestrom, ocem mehaničarom te bratom i sestrom. Mučio se u školi i nije se bavio sportom.

Kobna je za njega bila 1953. godina, njegova petnaesta, kada je skupina mladića s kojom je bio tražila novac za alkohol od druge, koja je sjedila i također pila alkohol. Došlo je do sukoba, radili su noževi, bilo je dvoje mrtvih i šest ozlijeđenih. Policija je naravno najprije uhitila njega, a on gotovo da nije ni znao s kim je bio.

U policiji su ga držali pet dana, bez odvjetnika, a k njemu nisu pustili ni roditelje. Poslije su ga optužili za ubojstvo, iako stalno tvrdi da nikoga nije ubio. Sudac ga je proglasio krivim za ubojstvo prvog stupnja i osudio na doživotni zatvor.

Da stvar bude gora, Pennsylvania je jedna od šest američkih država u kojima doživotni zatvor nema mogućnost uvjetnog otpusta, a Ligon nije ni znao za taj uvjet svoje kazne.

- Nisam ni slutio da ću biti u zatvoru do kraja svog života. Nisam znao čitati ni pisati, nisam mogao ni napisati svoje ime. Znao sam da se zovem Joe, kaže pasivni Ligon koji nikada nije ispitivao koliko mu je vremena preostalo da odsluži. Promijenio je šest zatvora, radio u kuhinji i praonici rublja, ali je uglavnom bio čistač.

- Nisam se petljao s drogom, nisam pio u zatvoru, nisam radio ništa od onih ludih stvari zbog kojih ljudi ubijaju, nisam pokušao pobjeći, nikome nisam stvarao probleme," rekao je reporterima BBC-ja.

Nakon 53 godine zatvora ukazalo mu se svjetlo na kraju ćelije, javio mu se odvjetnik Bradley S. Bridge koji je poslije presude Vrhovnog suda SAD-a iz 2005. da maloljetnici ne mogu biti pogubljeni počeo baviti pitanjem maloljetnika bez prava na uvjetni otpust. Takvih je u Philadelphiji bilo 325 - a Ligon je imao najduži staž.

- Nije bio svjestan svoje kazne, ali nikada nije odrekao nade - bio je potpuno optimističan, kaže Bridge.

Vrhovni sud je 2016. godine presudio da se moraju izreći točne kazne za sve maloljetničke doživotne kazne pa je Ligon ponovno osuđen na 35 godina te je mogao zatražiti uvjetni otpust jer je odslužio kaznu. Ali Ligon je smatrao da je njegova kazna uvijek bila neustavna pa nije htio prihvatiti uvjetni otpust i nadzor poslije njega.

Išao je osporiti presudu i tri godine poslije, 2020. godine, savezni sud presudio je u njegovu korist. Presudu je primio mirno, odvjetnik se iznenadio izostankom njegova oduševljenja. Kao proteklih desetljeća u zatvoru, Joe Ligon zadržao je misli za sebe.

Na slobodi ga, kaže, zbunjuju automobili i neboderi, a umrla je većina članova njegove obitelji. Glavni junak ove tužne priče nema puno planova za ostatak života.

- Radit ću isto što i cijeli život, čistiti i biti domar, rekao je.

Joe Ligon, maloljetnik s najdužim zatvorskim stažom u SAD-u, nedavno je izašao iz zatvora u kojem je proveo punih 68 godina.

Kako je rekao novinarima BBC-ja, bio je i ostao samotnjak, izmješten iz društva i bez previše prijatelja, pa mu je u neku ruku odgovarao i život u ćeliji. Odrastao je s bakom i djedom u Alabami, s 13 godina se preselio u Philadelphiju i živio s majkom medicinskom sestrom, ocem mehaničarom te bratom i sestrom. Mučio se u školi i nije se bavio sportom.

Kobna je za njega bila 1953. godina, njegova petnaesta, kada je skupina mladića s kojom je bio tražila novac za alkohol od druge, koja je sjedila i također pila alkohol. Došlo je do sukoba, radili su noževi, bilo je dvoje mrtvih i šest ozlijeđenih. Policija je naravno najprije uhitila njega, a on gotovo da nije ni znao s kim je bio.

U policiji su ga držali pet dana, bez odvjetnika, a k njemu nisu pustili ni roditelje. Poslije su ga optužili za ubojstvo, iako stalno tvrdi da nikoga nije ubio. Sudac ga je proglasio krivim za ubojstvo prvog stupnja i osudio na doživotni zatvor.

Da stvar bude gora, Pennsylvania je jedna od šest američkih država u kojima doživotni zatvor nema mogućnost uvjetnog otpusta, a Ligon nije ni znao za taj uvjet svoje kazne.

- Nisam ni slutio da ću biti u zatvoru do kraja svog života. Nisam znao čitati ni pisati, nisam mogao ni napisati svoje ime. Znao sam da se zovem Joe, kaže pasivni Ligon koji nikada nije ispitivao koliko mu je vremena preostalo da odsluži. Promijenio je šest zatvora, radio u kuhinji i praonici rublja, ali je uglavnom bio čistač.

- Nisam se petljao s drogom, nisam pio u zatvoru, nisam radio ništa od onih ludih stvari zbog kojih ljudi ubijaju, nisam pokušao pobjeći, nikome nisam stvarao probleme," rekao je reporterima BBC-ja.

Nakon 53 godine zatvora ukazalo mu se svjetlo na kraju ćelije, javio mu se odvjetnik Bradley S. Bridge koji je poslije presude Vrhovnog suda SAD-a iz 2005. da maloljetnici ne mogu biti pogubljeni počeo baviti pitanjem maloljetnika bez prava na uvjetni otpust. Takvih je u Philadelphiji bilo 325 - a Ligon je imao najduži staž.

- Nije bio svjestan svoje kazne, ali nikada nije odrekao nade - bio je potpuno optimističan, kaže Bridge.

Vrhovni sud je 2016. godine presudio da se moraju izreći točne kazne za sve maloljetničke doživotne kazne pa je Ligon ponovno osuđen na 35 godina te je mogao zatražiti uvjetni otpust jer je odslužio kaznu. Ali Ligon je smatrao da je njegova kazna uvijek bila neustavna pa nije htio prihvatiti uvjetni otpust i nadzor poslije njega.

Išao je osporiti presudu i tri godine poslije, 2020. godine, savezni sud presudio je u njegovu korist. Presudu je primio mirno, odvjetnik se iznenadio izostankom njegova oduševljenja. Kao proteklih desetljeća u zatvoru, Joe Ligon zadržao je misli za sebe.

Na slobodi ga, kaže, zbunjuju automobili i neboderi, a umrla je većina članova njegove obitelji. Glavni junak ove tužne priče nema puno planova za ostatak života.

- Radit ću isto što i cijeli život, čistiti i biti domar, rekao je.

Odrastao je s bakom i djedom u Alabami, s 13 godina se preselio u Philadelphiju i živio s majkom medicinskom sestrom, ocem mehaničarom te bratom i sestrom. Mučio se u školi i nije se bavio sportom.

Kobna je za njega bila 1953. godina, njegova petnaesta, kada je skupina mladića s kojom je bio tražila novac za alkohol od druge, koja je sjedila i također pila alkohol. Došlo je do sukoba, radili su noževi, bilo je dvoje mrtvih i šest ozlijeđenih. Policija je naravno najprije uhitila njega, a on gotovo da n...
