Navy veteran Daryl Kelly has spent nearly 16 years in prison. He was falsely accused of molestation in October 1997 by his then pre-teen daughter Chaneya, who claims her drug- and alcohol-addicted mother, Charade, forced her to make this horrendous claim. The 24-year-old is seeking forgiveness and tells NBC, “I’m 24-years-old and I made this mistake when I was nine-years-old, but it’s never too late to try and right your wrong.”
Daryl was sentenced to serve 2o to 40 years in prison and barred from having any contact with his five children after he was convicted of multiple counts of rape and sexual assault. He’s now being held in the Green Haven Correctional Facility, a maximum security prison in New York. He tells reporters, “All I think is, one day the truth will set me free. All I have to do is hold on.”
