Movie Reviews of 60 Minutes: Eyewitness (March 8, 2009)
Movie Review: Why the System in the US is only after convictions, not justice!!
Summary: 5 Stars
More and more of these cases are coming out, and it shows how inept the US Justice System really is. Cotton went through hell for something he didn't do, while the real scum was nearby in another cell, not saying a thing, and making sure that he wouldn't get more time in jail for what he actually did.
Cotton is more forgiving than I would be towards the woman and the system for what he went through.
Get the book, "Picking Cotton" which adds more details and fleshes out all the history of this case featured on to 60 Minutes.
Summary of 60 Minutes: Eyewitness (March 8, 2009)
Airdate: 3/08/2009 There should be no better witness to a crime than an eyewitness, but in this report, Lesley Stahl shows how eyewitness memory can be faulty. She tells the story of Jennifer Thompson, who in 1984 picked Ronald Cotton out of a lineup, certain he had raped her. Cotton served 11 years in prison before DNA set him free. It turns out, our memory is more fragile and malleable than we think.This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media. Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply.
