Is it possible to make a documentary about the justice system in the United States in which justice actually prevails in the end? The truly sad part is that this picture comes closer than most. Several people who are falsely convicted of child molestation are eventually exonerated and released from prison. Sure, they lost years (in one case two decades) of their lives, and nothing ever happened to the social worker, law enforcement agents and prosecuting attorneys involved in the terrible mishandling of their cases. But at least they got to go free, except for the two who died in prison. Hooray. Mildly amusing
