Jonathan A @RT59252437 01/26/2025 This was a documentary that demonstrated tunnel vision from the start. See more Mark B @RT14053657 03/30/2024 I thought the case was presented in both an entertaining but also noble fashion. The coverage was objective. When an interview is conducted, most of us want the person being interviewed to be heard and allowed to express their full thoughts, as opposed to an interviewer inserting their self as the star of the show. This production was done in that fashion, imho. On another note, this is an awesome insight into why due process is so important, and how much damage and death can occur without it.
