Autographs of Rubin Carter
Rubin "Hurricane" Carter (May 6, 1937 – April 20, 2014) was a black American middleweight boxer who was wrongfully convicted and imprisoned for murder, until released following a petition of habeas corpus after spending 18 years and 4 months in prison.
In 1966, Carter and his co-accused, John Artis, were arrested for a triple homicide which was committed at the Lafayette Bar and Grill in Paterson, New Jersey, United States. Shortly after the killings at 2:30 a.m., a car, carrying Carter, Artis, and a third man, was stopped by police outside the bar as they were on their way home from a nearby nightclub. They were allowed to go on their way but, after dropping off the third man, Carter and Artis were stopped and arrested while they were passing the bar a second time 45 minutes later. In 1967, they were convicted of all three murders and given life sentences. Their sentences were overturned in 1985 on the basis of prosecutor misconduct and dubious eyewitness testimony. Prosecutors appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, but declined to retry the case after the appeal failed.
Carter's autobiography, titled The Sixteenth Round, written while he was in prison, was published in 1974 by Viking Press. The story inspired the 1975 Bob Dylan song "Hurricane" and the 1999 film The Hurricane, starring Denzel Washington as Carter. From 1993 to 2005, Carter served as executive director of the Association in Defence of the Wrongly Convicted, later renamed Innocence Canada.
