Editor's note: This article was originally published on February 17, 2021. It has since been updated. There is no doubt that the prison system in the United States is archaic and unjust. For evidence of that, we must look no further than America's juvenile "lifers," that is, children under the age of 18 who are sentenced to life in prison without parole. Oftentimes, these individuals do not see the world outside until they are senior citizens. Joe Ligon was a juvenile lifer. He was sentenced to prison when he was 15 years old and last saw daylight when Dwight Eisenhower had wrapped up his first month as President. Ligon was finally released from Pennsylvania’s State Correctional Institution Phoenix in 2021 after a tough trial fought by Bradley Bridge, Ligon’s attorney since 2006. The longest-serving juvenile lifer in the country, he was 83 years old at the time of his release, ABC News reports.

Meet Joe Ligon, the oldest juvenile 'lifer.' He was released after 68 years in prison.

A truck driver was killed in a single-vehicle MVA on I-95 at the McLeod Road overpass on May, 22, 2024. The truck had been traveling southbound when it left the roadway at a high rate of speed, drove down an embankment, entered the wooded median and struck several trees, flipping over several times. The vehicle received extensive damage and the male driver suffered multiple traumatic injuries and was trapped in the crushed cab. The truck was covered in fallen trees and was difficult to see from the roadway. It was possible it had been there for some time. Firefighter-Paramedics stabilized the truck and used chainsaws to remove several trees to gain access to the cab. Crews deployed Holmatro Rescue Tools to perform an extended extrication of the driver. Southbound traffic was rerouted to Exit 62 to bypass the collision. The SC Highway Patrol was investigating the crash. Fire-Rescue units were on the scene for 3-1/2 hours.
