Making a murderer

Post by Jebus »

Have any of you seen this documentary series and if so what did you think? I thought it was fascinating. The shortcomings of the American legal system are made shockingly obvious.

I haven't. Sounds like Hillary has made some commitments to some reform on that end; probably more realistic than some of the other goals she's set. Republicans tend to be tough on crime, but I'm not sure where Trump stands on this stuff.

Maybe this series will help the situation by bringing more attention to the problem?

Obama commented on the case after a petition from angry viewers of the series, saying that he is unable to intervene as it was not a federal case.
