of course i couldn't dispute this because i didn't even know about it
cardinal knows undo nothing for
two weeks
dikkat made completely away from everybody when afforded jury found casey
anthony not guilty of murdering her two-year-old daughter kaylee
oblique lighting up from the american public that had been heard since the
o_j_ simpson verdict in nineteen ninety five
what happens how could the jury piece is stupid what's wrong with our justice
system that if you look really guilty person go free but i think that the
verdict meeting that you should be even more trouble with our justice system
does the opposite and not only convict someone of a crime he didn't commit but
sentences them to death for this is what happened to randall adams was convicted
of killing a police officer in texas in nineteen seventy six
born for detective turned filmmaker errol morris learned about adams case
he said i think a documentary about it called the thin blue line a movie so
compelling that he got adams released from prison adams was a drifter looking
for work near dallas we crossed paths with david harris a troubled arms
teenage runaway in the midst of a crime spree to reenactments an extensive
interviews with adam's harris law enforcement adams lawyers and the judge
in witnesses involved in the case we see others chance encounter in texas is
obsession with quick deadly justice almost an innocent man executed
what we see in the thin blue line is a cavalcade of examples and reenactments
illustrating why cases can be still riddled with human errors prejudices
personal footballs and out of luck that our justice system should not be allowed
to mete out punishment as permanent an irrevocable as killing someone
i witness testimony often considered the most reliable evidence in the case is
shown to be wildly inaccurate and sometimes given in exchange for leniency
unrelated cases the expert testimony of a psychiatrist known as doctor death for
his record of condemning *** suspects is used to prove that happens the
dangerous sociopath that would kill again if released key evidence for the
defense is inexplicably barred or ignored and the biases of law
enforcement and the judge are allowed to influence the verdict inter interviews
with david harris his friends emplacement who knew harris and his
criminal record well were given a chilling portrait of a cold-blooded man
crew we can both the *** adams was convicted of
if you still support the difficulty despite the over one hundred thirty
inmates who later had a death row convictions overturned the thin blue
line to shake your *** to its core business meticulous deconstruction a
palestinian the culture can become so obsessed with delivering harsh frontier
style justice attic prioritize the desire to punish over questions of guilt
or innocence it amazes me how republicans can claim that our
government can't do anything well that demands that the people commit arbiter
in matters of life or death whether it be capital punishment or going to war in
most cases human judgments are true flawed infallible to be used as the
basis for taking someone's life
criticism that can never be and uh...
and with author of the barking of the midst of the death penalty saves money
deters crime it's an america joins the rest of the industrialized world in a
bolsters the death penalty for good
and i think and this is a rethink review
