A lot of you can't read and comprehend I see

For the slow people: Basically the boys and parents wasn't smart. They signed papers of them lying and no one thought about getting a lawyer. If you go back and READ, I said the white people was wrong for manipulating those kids and those signatures was all they needed.

Damn man.

I say still watch it. It's traumatizing and upsetting, but these performances are so damn good. It made me cry and I never cry ever.

I'm almost done with episode 2 but I think episode 3 is when all shit break loose. I saw episode 4 already. It's weird because the man boy from moonlight is no where to be found at trail. I wonder how they are going to bring him in.

Of course much of what we saw in the movie was less than "smart". I just said that Korey Wise clearly was slow as a turtle . But please know that cops can sense when they're dealing with someone who isn't very aware of their rights and will take advantage of that.

Just because someone has very little knowledge of the justice system and how it operates does not mean it's OK to use that as an excuse to railroad them.

They took a confession from and interrogated a young boy who was clearly slow/mentally unstable. And his confession is what was used to tie everything together and ultimately get them all convicted. That alone is predatory. And it infuriates me.

A small part of me hopes you're simply trolling because there's just no way in the world.

I agree with this so what's the issue?

You basically said what I was saying.

You referred to those boys as "weak" for signing papers.

But tell me how "strong" would you be as a 13 or 14 year old in a holding cell or interrogation room by yourself...without your parents... with big grown ass men in uniforms with guns in their holsters screaming at you.

They weren't weak. They were SCARED.

I wouldn't have signed shit because my dad and uncle taught me that at very young age because it was important. Sorry for my choice of words but you know where I was getting at. I called them weak, you called them slow. Neither is any better than the other one.

Korey Wise was actually portrayed as "slow" in the movie.

His inability to understand simple instructions. Inability to read at a very basic level as a 16 year old. He was NOT in any condition to do the things they forced him or expected him to do. He was a very easy target.

Even looking at his interviews now as an adult, you can see a very clear difference in his speech, etc. He's not "all there". And those demons definitely knew that. They're not stupid.

None of the boys were portrayed as "weak" in the movie though. That is something you're introducing on your own.

They signed those papers at that moment and gave in, that's weak.

Disagree, well that's you and I'm sorry.

Linda Fairstein, the longtime New York City prosecutor turned prolific crime novelist, is no longer with her publisher after a firestorm of criticism erupted over her work in a famous — and recently dramatized — trial three decades ago.Dutton, an imprint of Penguin Random House, confirmed to NPR that it and Fairstein "have decided to terminate their relationship." A spokesperson for Dutton declined to offer any further details on the decision.News of the abrupt separation comes two months after the publication of her latest novel, Blood Oath — and just days after the release of the Netflix-produced, Ava DuVernay-helmed miniseries When They See Us. The show dramatizes the notorious case in which authorities pressured five black and Latino teenagers into falsely confessing to a 1989 gang rape in New York City's Central Park.

But it is her past life as a prosecutor that is haunting her. In the span of a week, she has resigned from the boards of Safe Horizon, a nonprofit victim assistance organization, as well as Vassar College, her alma mater, following a petition drive calling for her removal; and she is the target of a hashtag campaign to boycott her books, #CancelLindaFairstein.

Even Glamour magazine, which named Fairstein the Woman of the Year in 1993, retracted that honor in a note to readers published earlier this week.

"Unequivocally, Glamour would not bestow this honor on her today. She received the award in 1993, before the full injustices in this case were brought to light," the magazine's editor-in-chief, Samantha Barry, wrote Tuesday. "Though the convictions were later vacated and the men received a settlement from the City of New York, the damage caused is immeasurable."
