“I believe this case is closed,” Ellington said.
The prosecutor in this case said the above. That means the real killer/killers got away with it because of inept and corrupt cops. Like I said, this prosecutor and the cops will never change their mind even if a video of someone else committing the murder appears.
I wish there was a law that whenever anyone is wrongfully convicted because of police corruption the cops and the prosecutors should serve the time.
The prosecutor may believe the case is closed but it doesn’t sound as if the lawyers feel the same way. Echols looked as if he was a deer caught in the headlights. This is got to be harder on him than the others; like he said, he’s spent the last two decades in solitary confinement.
If nothing else, I hope those who worked so hard to get these three out of prison continue to work on this case and trying to prove who the evidence shows actually committed the murders.

The Danes had a law, anybody making an accusation of a crime, pit himself on the block also. At the end of the trial, if the accused was found guilty, he was hung - if innocent, the accuser was hung.
Dunno what happened to that law - perhaps they ran out of prosecutors.
Hey, I could get behind that. I wish there were a law that said whenever someone works to free a convicted murderer from prison who then goes out and murders yet again, gets the same sentence as the murderer. Surely, you could get behind that?
