Subramanyam Vedam, 64, was recently exonerated for murder after being sentenced to life in prison in 1983
A Pennsylvania man who was recently exonerated after spending more than four decades behind bars has now been taken into custody by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) and faces possible deportation to India.
Earlier this month, Centre county’s district attorney dismissed murder charges against 64-year-old Subramanyam “Subu” Vedam. However, shortly after his exoneration, Vedam was detained by ICE based on a 1988 deportation order tied to his now-vacated convictions.
As I said, the benefit is an altered consciousness and/or perception to provide new insight and avenues of introspection on one’s being, life path, and composition of their ontology.
Alcoholism causes cancer, alcohol is the most easily abused drug, and the heavy legislation was even heavier in times past (it was banned outright during the prohibition era in the US) and had disastrous consequences for the public.
And I’m not even trying to argue to ban alcohol; statistically it is the “worst” societally by many metrics.
Your banal puritanism has been tried before.
