In 1966, middleweight boxing contender Rubin “Hurricane” Carter was arrested for a triple murder he swore he didn’t commit. Convicted on shaky eyewitness testimony, Carter’s career and freedom were stolen at the height of his rise. For nearly two decades, he fought the system from behind bars—writing a powerful memoir, gaining support from activists, and eventually winning his release when courts ruled his conviction was driven by racial prejudice and withheld evidence. This is the story of how a champion boxer became one of America’s most famous victims of wrongful conviction.
