I think that hardest part to swallow is that it wasn't long ago that this occurred and further, the Boston PD continued to stone wall up until a few years ago. Uggh. Even thinking about it now makes me angry.
I like the interviews with the Boston PD officers..."We didnt do anything wrong!"

Narrator: "They did."

It definitely reminds me some of 'Making a Murderer' because the Cops knew they screwed up and instead of coming clean on it they let someone rot in jail for 20 years and if they get caught now they know they're going to get sued into oblivion.

So now they have to Double-Down because each year this guy spends in jail is just piling up in a potential settlement. The Cops know this. The Judges know this. The Prosecutors know this.

So it is always in their best interest to keep him in Jail.

Its infuriating. But I've still got 3 Episodes to go.
