Absolutely terrifying

This story is not unique, but it’s absolutely terrifying. We should be able to put our faith in the justice system, but it’s run by people. People are flawed, especially the people involved in this story. Lives were ruined and they don’t seem to have even an ounce of remorse.
Excellent reporting.
