well you still miss the point, and I guess that I cannot articulate it any other way.
It is an indictment of the procedure, and calls into question of the procedure, of securing the confession. As to his testimony on the stand, more than likely he was advised that if he went along with the confession MCO would be more lenient, but if he fought it, and recanted, they would lock him up forever. After spending 3 years in jail without a trial, I would beleive them. I would believe that they could lock me up forever if I did not play along. So, your point is it means nothing b/c of what happened later, but you are looking at the scenario in a vacuum, without considering the other effects of recanting his testimony.
We will have to disagree.

This is the stupidest, most enabling statement I've ever seen anywhere. What a flipping MORON.

You've GOT to read #253. It should go on the "Stupid Post Wall of Shame".

I used to sympathize with the guy, read Dunne's stuff...read some more. Now I think the guy's a whacko! Ten years is pretty soft. He lit a match and it killed a guy. Tsk Tsk. It doesn't matter if the guy wasn't so nice, or his wife was a witch. Maher scammed and got busted. V's wife.
