[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 2636545, member: 5412"] I've brought up a couple of cases where the Prosecutor has railroaded innocent people into jail time. John Grisham wrote about the two guys convicted of murder in Oklahoma in his book, The Innocent Man. Both sentenced to Ol sparky. One getting a reprieve just minutes before his execution, the other getting out on appeal. Screwed up both of their lives. I know some of the people interviewed in the bar where it supposedly happened. During the interrogation that lasted for hours, they almost thought they should confess to something even though they were just witnesses. It was intense with no sleep, no breaks with different interrogators brought in relays so it was non-stop. To this day, nobody has actually been convicted of the crime after the two guys got of the slammer. [/QUOTE]
