i watch this movie with my mother . she be 81 yr . old and be raise to be a bigot . she even acknowledge this . i do not think she really understand what be happen and she have already make up her mind that the kid be guilty . scary . i felt for this child and his family . what torture they go through and remain faithful . that be true faith . back to the movie . i be disgust by the police force and their ineptitude . i be so glad that this public defender be choose to work this case . it be very fortunate for this family that they have a person that care enough to see through the crap that be hand to him . i could tell when one the cop be lie . he would not look the defender in the eye . his eye move to the side when he answer the question . it be unfortunate that a black person have to be punish because of the color of his skin . i read the book about the black man be drag behind a truck by three white men . they be finally find guilty after many year . i can not remember the title and but it be the same premise . white do whatever they want with black . i be sure the child in the movie will be traumatize for a long time and if not forever . i point out to my mother that most serial killer and pedophile be white . no comment from her . i want to commend the director and producer of this film . i feel the exposure they give to this blatant injustice be a necessary project . i be an avid viewer of indy film . i feel that they be well write and have substance . i be pleased that i happen to grab this movie on the shelf . i felt compel to write a comment because of how strongly i feel about the film and the prejudice that continue to exist in our modern society .
