Kalief Browder committed suicide on June 6, 2015, at the age of 22, but in many ways he actually began slowly dying years prior.
Browder was arrested in May of 2010 in the Bronx, New York, at the age of 16 for allegedly stealing a backpack. Ordinarily, he would have been released right away because he was a juvenile, however because he was already on probation the judge in the case ordered Browder to be held in Rikers Island, with his bail set at $3500.
Unable to make bail, Browder spent three years in Rikers without a conviction. Two of those years he was held in solitary confinement.
Browder refused to take a plea deal, insisting he was innocent. While in jail he endured beatings by guards and other inmates. He attempted suicide six times while incarcerated.
In June of 2013, his case was dismissed without ever going to trial.
Jay Z wanted to she light on this tragic story. He partnered with the Weinstein Co. to produce a docu-series on Browder and the criminal justice system titled "Time: The Kalief Browder Story."

While his time in prison, Casanova 2X talks about spending nearly seven years getting into bloody fights, being forced into solitary confinement for three years and meeting his good friend Taxstone on Rikers Island. In this in-depth interview with DJ Vlad, the rapper says, though, he was written up for stabbing 3-4 people, he says in total it could have been 12 people during the melees that caught the sharp end of his weapon. Most would assume that would be enough to give the rapper the maximum punishment he says it wasn't until he was caught boofing (smuggling cocaine and razors in his anus) that led him to serve nearly three years in solitary confinement, causing him to lose his mind.
The Brooklynite says after his time in the box, he was released at the age of 27 and back on the streets for two months before getting locked up for a robbery he did not commit.

Donald Trump's successful presidential run might have opened the door for an Oval Office bid by one of America's most popular women.
During an interview on the season two premiere of "The David Rubenstein Show: Peer-to-Peer Conversations" on Bloomberg Television, Oprah Winfrey, sounded like someone who would consider it.
"You ever thought that given the popularity you have. We haven't broken the glass ceiling yet for women, that you could actually run for president and actually be elected?" Rubenstein asked.
"I actually never thought that was ... I never considered the question. Even a possibility," Oprah said. "I just thought, 'Oh, oh.'"
"Because it's clear that you don't need government experience to be elected President of the United States," Rubinstein prodded.
"That's what I thought," special contributor to “60 Minutes" responded. "I thought, 'Oh gee, I don't have the experience. I don't know enough.' And now I'm thinking, 'Oh.'"
How do you think Oprah would fare if she ran for president in 2020?

(CNN) A Georgia couple who rode with a Confederate flag-waving group that made armed threats against African-Americans at a child's birthday party were sentenced to prison Monday.
Jose "Joe" Torres, was sentenced to 20 years, with 13 years in prison, after a jury convicted him on three counts of aggravated assault, one count of making terroristic threats and one count of violating of Georgia's Street Gang Terrorism and Prevention Act.
Kayla Norton was sentenced to 15 years, with six years in prison. She was convicted on one count of making terroristic threats and one count of violation of the Street Gang Act.
"Many people tried to make the case about simply flying the Confederate Battle Flag," Douglas County District Attorney Brian Fortner said in a statement. "This case was about a group of people riding around our community, drinking alcohol, harassing and intimidating our citizens because of the color of their skin."
On July 25, 2015, Torres and Norton, joined about a dozen other people in a convoy of pickup trucks waving large Confederate flags as they drove around Douglas County, a suburban Atlanta community. Most of them belonged to a group called "Respect the Flag."
"The convoy of trucks passed by the victim's residence where the victims were grilling hot dogs and hamburgers while hosting a child's birthday party featuring a bouncy castle, snow-cone machines, and a DJ," the district attorney's office posted on its official Facebook page.
The party-goers said the people in the trucks yelled racial slurs as they passed, the statement said.
The drivers parked the trucks near the house, prosecutors said. Torres was part of a smaller group that "threatened to kill the party goers while repeatedly using derogatory racial slurs against them," said the statement.
"Torres, who had retrieved a shotgun from his vehicle, pointed his shotgun at the group of African American party-goers and stated he was going to kill them while his co-defendants stated that 'the little ones can get one too,' referring to the young children at the party," the statement said.
Norton was accused of making similar threats. The victims said some member of Torres' group was armed with a knife and a tire tool.
According to the district attorney's statement, Torres testified he carried the shotgun because he feared for his friends' safety. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported members of "Respect the Flag" said people at the party had thrown objects at them.
CNN has tried to reach the two defendants' lawyers for comment.
After the arrests, investigators looked through the defendants' Facebook accounts, the statement said.
"Law enforcement was able to locate numerous posts and messages indicating that members of the group were white supremacists who discussed attending KKK rallies, joining Skinheads Nation, and making numerous derogatory remarks about African Americans as a whole," the DA's statement said.
Video of Monday's sentencing shot by WSB-TV, a CNN affiliate, showed both Torres and Norton breaking down in court as Judge William McClain handed down the sentence.
Norton apologized for her role in the incident saying, "I want you all to know that is not me. That is not me, that is not him. I would never walk up to you and say those words to you. I'm so sorry that happened to you. I am so sorry."
Hyesha Bryant, one of the people at the party, testified at the hearing and told Norton, "What you said affected my life. It affected my children's lives."
But Bryant ended up telling Norton that "I forgive you, I forgive all of you."
A jury convicted Torres and Norton on February 6. They are both banished from Douglas County when they're released from prison.
Fifteen members of the Respect the Flag group were originally indicted. The disposition of all their cases is unknown, but the district attorney said some of them pleaded guilty to similar charges and received shorter sentences.
