I just finished watching the rerun of the 48 hours story. I record and watch all of the 48 hours episodes and I have never been affected enough to post a comment on a website...however, this story blew me away. What a frieghtening miscarriage of justice. The police and prosecutor need to be ashamed and the jury just needs to be embarrassed. I am so sorry that this has happened to you and hope that you will be vindicated soon. I will be praying that you will soon be granted the freedom that should never have been taken from you. God Bless!

Hello, I just saw the re-run of the 48 Hours story on this case...I will admit I am always convinced of the defendants guilt in the 48 Hours stories; however this time I am certainly NOT. That jury was ridiculous. I am praying for the Ferguson family. I do hope Ryan is set free.

To Ryan and the Ferguson Family:
I saw the 48 Hours episode the other night. I CANNOT believe that by the lack of evidence in this case, they actually found Ryan guilty! As I sat and watched the trial go on, my heart ached because the facts just don't add up! It was so clear that Chuck was lying about the whole thing and to put an innocent man in prison for crimes he clearly didn't commit, well I don't know how the jury sleeps at night!
I am about the same age as Ryan and know what it's like to be sitting in that defendant chair not knowing how things will end up. I feel for him, really I do! I was attacked by my neighbor and tried to press charges and I was given the run around. She pressed charges on me and my boyfriend who wasnt even present at the time but yet both of us were arrested and tried in court. I don't believe in the U.S. Judicial system and I don't believe that innocent people continue to get arrested based on accusations and not facts! My heart and prayers are with your family. FREE RYAN FERGUSON!

I am posting one of my many comments regarding Ryan. I am so ready for Aug 5th and for the Ferguson's I just so hope and pray your nightmare will finally end. What happened to him has shaken my faith in our judicial system FOREVER.
Ryan: so many people care about you and believe in you. Chuck, I hope you get the help you need, but when you had this dream, I realize you cannnot help being mentally ill, but I do so wish you had left Ryan out of it. You are the only one that was involved in getting Ryan convicted that I am not angry with, because I know what you did was due to your being mantally ill, although again, I wish you had not involved Ryan and took these years away from him.
I will always wonder if you really believe you committed this crime, or somewhere deep down, you know you didn't.
I just want Ryan home. I honestly think I can say without exaggeration that I want him home as much as I would if it were my own child. What they did to you is just so wrong and cruel, and they did it with little thought as to what they were doing to your future. I will believe until the day I die that Kevin Crane knows you are innocent of this crime, just too arrogant to admit it. If he can sleep with that, so be it, but the public will stand behind you and we care.
I am so proud that you have the love and support of your family. Although I may never get the pleasure of personally meeting them, I will always feel that they are special people with extreme endurance. They have had nothing but stumbling blocks and downright refusal from the powers that be there in Columbia to even try to search for the truth. I have never given up on you and I never will. Until you walk out of that prison a free man, I will never stop, that is my promise to you, your family, and myself. It is easy to see something like this happen and think "oh well" it's tragic, and wrong, but what can I do? I would NEVER ever want to see what happened to you happen to anyone but taking the attitude of doing nothing I hope will make people stand up and realize if this kind of injustice can happen to Ryan, it could happen to anyone. Ourselves, our kids, anyone. Aug 5th is approaching fast, please to the public do not give up, keep figting for right and justice. Please.
Thank You
Jan Davis

Just watched the 48 hour episode and the response the Jury gave for finding Ryan guilty was Laughable!

This trial is as blatant and stupid as the OJ Simpson case!

I've seen this case on TV. Didn't believe Ryan was guilty then and certainly don't now. Hope you win the appeal!!!!

Where is the blood splatered clothing and crowbar used in the murder. Surley Mr Erickson would know. Unless he is lying about the whole thing.

Ryan, I am so sorry you and your family have been victimized. I watched 48 hours and I have no idea how you could have been convicted. It is scary to me that something like this can happen in this day and age. I pray for you and your family that you will be released and the real killer will be brought to justice. All the people involved in convicting you should be ashamed of themselves!!! Stay strong you and your family our in our thoughts.

I hope Ryan will be freed soon. It is obvious he been convicted of a crime he did not commit. Everytime I see the episode of 48 Hours it makes me sick to my stomach to see him found guilty. Hopefully someone will finally realize that an innocent man is behind bars!! Please free him!!!!

I hope Ryan is finally freed and home with his family. I just watched the 48 hours segment on his trial and am quite shocked that he was found guilty. Best of luck to you!
