Simon Cowell came to know of the Innocence Project after a life-changing moment when he met a contestant on "America’s Got Talent" named Archie Williams. Archie, a 59-year-old man from Louisiana, had spent 36 years in prison for a crime he didn’t commit.

    Simon is warming up as he ages. Congrats! Thanks for helping this project! Archie, GOOOOOOO! CONGRATULATIONS on your freedom, sir.

    This guy touched Simons heart hard. It hurts to know that because of Archies skin color, he was dealt a bad hand. We still have a lot of work to do in this country and around the world. We are all equal on the inside.

    Archie brother, God heard your prayers with a happy ending. Thank you Simon and I think God just knock on your door. Myself, when I hear this song "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me" , Never be the same again. Thank you Archie and God Bless You.
  • Well done Simon Cowell, congratulations, for joining the fight for the Innocent people who have been wrongly incarcerated. No one deserves this injustice. You have a hearts of gold and humility. May god continue to bless you, keep you cover always.

    Archie, please sing out all of your pain memories, just push that pain out of your heart, out of your very fiber ! Then let love create new memories to fill your life. I know that, as I do, so many people are feeling love in their hearts for you, right now ! For anyone who hasn't seen it, check out the video of Archie singing at The Apollo in Harlem !!

    Y'all are amazing. What you do makes all of you there at the Innocence Project heroes in my eyes, and probably many more sets of eyes across the country. Aside from Archie, and his obviously big heart, and Simon coming in to help, it's your organization that made this possible. Without the willful care of the Innocence Project, this performance wouldn't have happened. Thank you for all you do. Archie, if for some reason you read this.... GO FOR IT MAN! YOU'RE AWESOME!!!! Your possibilities are endless...
  • To God be the glory great things he hast done. You bring me to tears 😭 😭😭😭every time I watch you singing that song . I love you Archie , Love ❤️ from Jamaica 😘😘😘😘

    Very powerful and sad at the same time. Simon and any one of us with capability to do so should help. No one deserves to live a life in prison in place of someone else. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
  • Thank you Simon, you have an incredible heart! I wept listening to Archie's story, and his voice is beautiful. He's such a special, sweet soul. What a travesty of justice; I hope a lot of good will come from this collaboration ...
