On episode 5, anybody watched this?

Based on a non fiction John Grisham novel about the true story of two seperate murders of women in Ada, OK during the 80's and their convicted killers.

Was very good. Was recommended to me by the daughter of the judge featured on the show.

One of the last few Netflix Docs that had the right amount of substance with the time allotted

Incredible series that will break any faith you may have had in our judicial system

The one that made me lose all faith was the doc on the Duke Lacrosse team.. Fantastic Lies, I think?

That’s a good one, and I believe that one covers the exact same county as The Innocent Man case in North Carolina. The Innocence Project has gotten a frick ton of cases in that area overturned due to paid off and lying experts, planted evidence, and coerced confessions

ETA I think the Staircase case is also in that area. Which whether you believe that he guilty or not, it’s very clear there was a trampling of the defendants right to a fair trial in that case with the evidence that was allowed in court

Just finished the series.. It's bad over there but I'll put Jeff Davis politics up against anyone. I wish someone like Grisham would do a series on the Jeff Davis 8..

All you need to do is sit on one jury and you should figure out real fast that there are plenty of innocent people in prison. The 12 jurors can range from extremely intelligent to incredibly dumb. And it is scary with the the ones that are incredibly dumb as they have the accused life in their hands.

Netflix has decided they're going to be the TruCrime king.

They should just focus on this genre for programming because they are far better than their fantasy/fiction.
