read the book, court documents, this movie is propaganda. People just buy into medias rape. The ten commandments have been twisted and shaped to fit personal profits.

The beginnings of a long epic emotionally exhausting 18 year klusterfuk of crazy. After this make sure you watch Paradise Lost 2, 3, and then west of Memphis. what's most upsetting though is that groupthink took hold and it affected these men's lives in ways that you can't imagine. It's mind-blowing

The entire justice system of this country needs an overhaul. Its called public service, but ends up being politics, quota, and forgotten ideals. The biggest abuse of power by those who are given too much power and blurred boundaries.
