This Case has always intrigued me. Two twins where one was charged with burglary and swears that it was his twin brother that committed the crime. This one is a tough case it is really hard for me to make a decision on who to believe the one that was locked up really was convincing but, I have to wonder why any judge would convict someone with this much reasonable doubt. I hate to play this card but this may have been racially motivated what do you all think about this one? I mean on top of the resonable doubt the sentence that the judge gave was too harsh for the crime.. Fred has been locked up for 13 years now and you would think that a circuit court would be able to over trun the verdict based on the evidence that the State of North Carolina submitted to me would not be enough to convict someone for 77 years. Then the testiomy from Chris Ross who swear that it was the other twin.. still was not enough to vindcate the incarcerated twin.. This case is one I follow very closely as it is not far from home.. here is a link on Fredrick Young http://webapps6.doc.state.nc.us/apps...s&numtimesin=2Also in a Ironic twist of fate the so called innocent twin Cedric Young is also incarcerated as well and juding from his criminal record I am conviced that Fredrick is innocent and needs to be released .. here is the link for the other brother.( there is no picture but the birthdates confirmed it for me they are exactly the same http://webapps6.doc.state.nc.us/apps...s&numtimesin=2 So I guess karma came around and Cedric got his in the end.. I would never let my brother suffer for something I have done.. This is really a case where JUSTICE WAS NOT served !!! Oh boy this just gets better.. The child hood friend Chris Ross was charged with robbery as well but seems like he received a lighter prison term then Fredrick but as landed himself back in jail again here is a link on him as well http://webapps6.doc.state.nc.us/apps...s&numtimesin=2

thank you very very much i appreciate. you were more than helpful. It looks like cedrics been out of jail since 2001 tho

Mr.Clairvoyant · 03-11-2006, 03:05 AM

You are welcome.. yeah I looked over that. seems like he has been out since 2001 seem like Fred ain't never getting out!!!

clead23 · 03-11-2006, 03:18 AM

you know i wonder if he communicates with his brother

Mr.Clairvoyant · 03-12-2006, 02:33 AM

**** I know I wouldn't if what I say was true that it was him that committed the crime I think I would never have anything to say to him.. I know that has got to hurt

This is a very sad case. I too believe that the wrong twin was arrested. And the Young's mother believes that as well.

Sadly, this is a common problem. I've read about other cases where a twin was arrested for their twins crime. There was even an episode of "Without a Trace" last year that dealt with the wrong twin getting arrested for a crime. One of the FBI investigators even knew that the wrong twin was behind bars but there was no way to prove it and that's how the episode ended - with the wrong brother arrested. I remember turning to my friend and saying, "That is so messed up," and she replied that she agreed with me, but that it happens all too often."

I wonder if Fredick has exhausted all his apeals? I guess so if he is still stuck in prison that I am sure his brother commited this crime

Cedrick Young absolutely disgusts me, think I mentioned it on another thread. This is one instance when I dead-set wanted to throw a brick through the TV. How could you let your brother take the rap for you like this is beyond me.

Actually, a brick would be way too soft.

You'd have to be a snake to do your own blood in like that. I found myself snickering the moment he started crying those crocodile tears when he appeared on that talk show.

Obviously the term 'Brotherly Love' doesn't mean anything to Cedrick (the guilty party).

I know I couldn't go on living normally if my bro was in prison for a crime I committed. And, if I looked exactly like him or vise-versa that is. Where is the Brotherly Love on Cedrick's part. (Frederick is in prison for Cedrick's crime, isn't he?)

I especially feel for Frederick and their Mother to have to deal with this.
I've seen this segment.
