Boxer Rubin 'Hurricane' Carter and John Artis were honored in front of the very courthouse where they were tried and wrongfully convicted.
A street in Paterson was renamed after two men who spent decades behind bars for a triple murder they did not commit.
Carter was a prominent boxer in the 1960s, but his career was ruined by the murder convictions. It took two court cases before the convictions were overturned. After his conviction was overturned, Carter fought to help those who were unfairly treated by the criminal justice system.
