Witness admits to being ‘pathological liar’ about Detroit firefighter’s death - Detroit Metro Times

omg this is crazy Darian Dove's pathological lying has ruined so many lives - first Mario Willis was locked up for a crime he didn't commit and now Walter Harris's family is still waiting for justice I'm so sick of these conviction integrity units not doing their job properly it's time for some serious reforms, like independent review panels to check for potential miscarriages of justice

man... this Dove dude is like a train wreck you can't look away from he's got some serious explaining to do now... I'm not surprised he finally came clean, though - that whole story about Willis setting fire to a house just seemed too out of left field what really gets me is how long it took for Dove to crack under the pressure... 15 years in prison and still spinning a web of lies can you imagine the toll that must've taken on both Dove and Willis? anyway, this case just goes to show how broken our system can be when we don't have proper checks and balances hope the O'Brien Fellowship keeps digging into these cases so we can get some real answers...

omg i cant even believe this dude dove was such a pathological liar he basically ruined mario willis's life with his lies... 12-30 years in prison is way too much and now its coming out that he just made the whole thing up to save himself what kind of punishment should he get for lying about it? i feel so bad for willis and his family, they deserve justice

just heard about this crazy case with Darian Dove and I'm still trying to process how he managed to deceive so many people... like, his own lawyer even! It's wild to think that Willis was in prison for over a decade on a crime he didn't commit . And the part where fellow inmates were mocking him because of it is just sad . I'm glad that Dove finally admitted to being a pathological liar, but at what cost to Willis and his family? It's heartbreaking to think about all the time they lost due to someone else's lies . We need to do better to protect people like Willis from getting wrongly convicted .

this whole thing is wild, i mean dove's like a master manipulator or something. he goes from being a credible witness to a pathological liar and we just swallow it? what's even more messed up is that willis spent years behind bars thinking he was guilty, all thanks to dove's lies. i'm not surprised the conviction integrity unit rejected willis's appeal, though - it seems like they're doing their due diligence. still, this case just highlights how flawed our system can be when it comes to convicting people.

omg this is so messed up like Dove's lies were wild even other inmates were laughing at him lol. but seriously though Willis was wrongfully convicted due to Dove's testimony and it's insane that he's only now admitting to being a pathological liar . I think it's clear that the system failed here and we need to do better to protect people like Willis who are wrongly convicted. we can't just sit back and let this happen again . the O'Brien Fellowship needs to keep investigating these cases until justice is served for all #JusticeForWillis #WrongfulConvictionsMatter #SystemFail
