Black Woman imprisoned for 6 days After Being Wrongly ID'd by Police

Now African-Americans are being locked-up for being black while being falsely ID'd on social media:

An innocent black woman from Philadelphia spent almost a week in jail after being wrongly arrested for a crime committed in Texas - even though she has never been to the Lone Star State. 

The incident began with a shoplifting case at a sports store in Webster, Texas near Houston in May 2022. Police identified the suspect as a woman named Julie Hudson.

By sheer bad luck, a surveillance photo of the suspect appeared to look similar to social media images of a 31-year-old Ph.D. student from Philadelphia, also named Julie Hudson.

If there hadn't been a media inquiry she would still be locked up in jail. The system does not work for people of color. And it takes extraordinary means to get justice done.
