Leonard Allen Cure resisted arrest during a traffic stop, authorities say. He'd gotten $817,000 in compensation in August from Florida, where he'd been behind bars.

A man who spent more than 16 years in prison in Florida on a wrongful conviction was shot and killed Monday by a sheriff’s deputy in Georgia during a traffic stop, authorities and representatives said.

Leonard Allen Cure, 53, was identified by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, which is reviewing the shooting.

      This quote from the Lazarus story, the shortest in the Bible, makes no sense.

      Christians generally believe Jesus is God.

      So, “God cried”.

      All powerful, all knowing God, cried because his friend, who he could have saved if he bothered responding to Lazarus’ family’s pleas for help and arrive timely to heal him.

      Does your God cry because of scheduling conflicts?

      Does your God cry over dead friends he knows he will revive in a bit?

      Does your God cry just to relate & fit in with all the others at the funeral crying?

      Just about death, that he created? Is it the personal responsibility for all death?

      Why would your God need to cry?! F’ing ridiculous.
