Aaron ben Isaac Sason was an Ottoman author and Talmudist; born in Constantinople in 1629.
 He was a grandson of Aaron ben Joseph Sason, an eminent Talmudist, and cousin of Ḥayyim Benveniste, the famous scholar.
 Aaron Cupino, rabbi of Constantinople, was his teacher in Talmudic lore, and was so successful that at the age of twenty his pupil engaged in Talmudic controversies with Moses Benveniste, who thought them worthy of publication.
 The great Palestinian Pilpulist, Judah Rozanes, referred with respect to an unpublished work, "Hen Yeshallaḥ," by R. Aaron.
 Whether the work "Sefat Emet" should be credited to R. Aaron or to his grandfather, Aaron ben Joseph, is uncertain.
 The latter is more probably its author.
 Shabbethai Bass, the only writer who mentions that particular book, in his "Sifte Yeshenim," throws no light on this question, merely mentioning that it is by Aaron Sason.

Cornealious Michael "Mike" Anderson III (born c. 1977) was convicted of armed robbery in 2000 and sentenced to 13 years in the Missouri state prison system.
 Shortly after his conviction he was released on bail pending the outcome of an appeal of his conviction.
 In May 2002, his appeal was rejected but, due to a clerical error, his bond was not revoked when a warrant was issued for his arrest.
 It was unclear why he was not arrested and imprisoned to serve his 13-year sentence, but, apparently due to clerical errors and miscommunication, the Missouri Department of Corrections thought he was already in prison.
 The error was only discovered when he was scheduled to be released from prison in 2013.
 On July 25, 2013 he was arrested and required to serve his 13-year sentence.
 The case stirred controversy when investigative articles were written by Jessica Lussenhop in the "Riverfront Times" newspaper and when his case was covered nationally in the United States in an episode of "This American Life".
 By April 2014, his case began receiving extensive national and international attention.
 These articles and episode raised the question of whether he should be returned to prison 13 years after his conviction especially since the victim of his crime did not believe he should be in prison.
 Anderson's attorney filed several appeals and petitions for his release from prison, and on May 5, 2014 Anderson was released from prison.
 In 2014, he was arrested for another crime, but subsequent videotape evidence showed that he could not have committed the crime and charges were dropped with an apology by Circuit Attorney Jennifer M. Joyce.
