Loved the smile on his face when his lawyer called him a gentle giant. I also loved his lawyers response saying they only talked about physical attributes, but what about behavior. Spot on! Great episode, I was totally invested in the outcome!

Jesus the tension in this episode is nearly unbearably strong. This is how I feel like when watching a horror movie not knowing what is around the corner.

I was on the edge of my seat until I heard the jury verdict. It's a very simple story. A 20 year old man helped out a handicapped man get away from an angry old man. All were Black. As he took him to the car the angry old man walked up to them and the young man felt threatened and punched him once. The size difference and age difference is huge so right away I felt like he never should have done it. The old man unluckily fell and hit his head on the car getting a serious brain injury. He can't even feed himself.

What I really love about the case is how neutral it felt. Of course the camera crew is only following the defense attorney and they spin the story and ask biased questions. But you always feel like you kinda know what happened and who did what anyhow. There is no great lie. It's not a lame attempt at making an innocent man look guilty or a guilty man look innocent. Making a Murderer for example is clearly about a guilty r#pist and murderer who Netflix wanted to make out to be a good guy. Which is totally insane. Of course Making a Murderer is extremely entertaining, but it's one huge lie. They omit 50% of the evidence to make him look innocent. So these honest documentaries on the other hand are a breath of fresh air. It's less action-packed, but more true. This person is in fact guilty. He did punch an old man. We are just talking about how it happened and if it was right or wrong. The family of the old man claim he used a brick. Everyone else didn't see a brick.

I still can't get over how powerful it was. It's a very simple story, but you really feel like you are in there with them. They use a digital camera and zoom into faces so all emotions are clearly seen. Even though it is very high tension I still think it's for all, even kids. There is no race conflict either which I really like. Both men were Black so there is no great ideological spin as you see in most such documentaries about Black crime. I also want to say that the defense attorney was really good. Professional and clear. It's actually a positive surprise to see such a lawyer after following the prosecution in the Kyle Rittenhouse case. That was god awful. Good thing these good guys who don't lie exist out there.

This episode actually had me balling my eyes out at one point and the victims family were such terrible people

The wife of the man who the boy was protecting actually lied on the stand against him

He was protecting someone from a belligerent violent drunk who could not protect themselves (had a stroke) or even talk

That family deserves to be locked up for false accusations and Perjury

Great episode though one of the best.

I've seen several episodes and this is the only one which breaks my heart. It's obvious to me he and his neighborhood friends are good young man and all he did was do what he believed was right. I hope he and his family are doing well and I wish him the best of luck for his future.
