Roy Lee’s Story

38 Years Lost: The Life and Injustice of Roy Lee

In 1985, Roy Lee was arrested and convicted for a violent crime he had no part in. No physical evidence tied him to the scene. Witness testimony was inconsistent. And crucial information that could’ve cleared his name was buried.

For 38 years, he waited behind bars—losing time, family, health, and opportunities. But he never gave up hope.

In [year of release], Roy Lee was finally freed after new evidence surfaced—evidence that should have been considered decades ago.

His story is one of strength, survival, and an unbreakable belief in justice. Today, we fight not only to tell his story but to finish it—with full exoneration.
