Cynthia, I watched half of your program and I was so disgusted by your exploitation of the young girl you interviewed I had to change the channel. In your breathless and amazed (“did the pimp really push your cousin down a flight of stairs?’) whining voice, I imagine you are just thrilled with the “job” you have done. The only thing you have done in your “expose” is probably caused deep pyschological and long lasting harm to an unsophisticated young girl, who should never have been exposed to such noteriety. Congratulations.

We, in Colorado, have just seen a young man released from prison after nine years, for a murder he did not committ. His conviction was due to incredibly sloppy police work. Why weren’t the police who investigated the crime of the man that is profiled in the 60 minutes story being held accountable? Lawyers cannot betray their confidences. As they said, that would jeopordize the entire system. However, it seems like in 26 years, they could have figured out a way to get an innocence project pointed toward this man. I just hope the judge tomorrow decides that a new trial is not necessary, and that he releases him.
