Will see it. I love to see true stories of the FBIs incompetence
You will not regret seeing it. It is not a feel-good movie, but it is a very important movie that illustrates the dangers of tunnel vision by investigators and mass speculation and hysteria by the media.
Sadly, the lessons of this story and tragedy have still not been learned as we have seen it repeated over and over since on a whole host of stories.
I did wish the film would have spent more time on the internal deliberation by law enforcement. The FBI had too much faith in their profiler despite a lack of other evidence, despite not doing simple gum-shoe investigation that did show he did not do it, and over the objections of other agencies in the investigation who were excluded and pushed out by the FBI as the investigation floundered (all they ever had was the profile).
The arrogance was sickening.
All this crap about the female reporter in the negative reviews misses the real point for me as I did not know her or know her story. An innocent man was not afforded his rights because someone criminally leaked the fact that he was a suspect to the media generating a truly sickening frenzy.
