Everyone is familiar with the phrase 'innocent until proven guilty.' And while that's a nice sentiment, the reality is it's a complete and utter lie. It's something the justice system says, but does not practice, which really isn't justice at all.
I don't know how to fix the justice system, but I know the first step is admitting it's severely broken, and then acknowledging what about the system needs fixing.
This documentary does an excellent job showing some of the major flaws we should be recognizing and working towards fixing, as well as inspiring people to make the effort to act. I truly believe this film has done a great service towards bettering the system so that in the future we won't make the same mistakes.
In the meantime, can we please stop saying we consider people innocent until proven guilty?!
