剧情简介
On a cold November night in 1993, Wanda Lopez was stabbed to death while she worked at a Corpus Cristi Texas gas station. 21 year old Carlos DeLuna was arrested, and over the next six years, through his trial and subsequent imprisonment he protested his innocence, declaring that it was another Carlos who committed the crime. The prosecution insisted that this other Carlos was a “phantom’ and didn’t exist. Through illuminating interviews with witnesses, Carlos’ family members, and legal experts the film asks, for the first time since 1993, if the judicial system executed an innocent man, examining key evidence that calls into question whether or not Carlos DeLuna was right about the other Carlos. Was he a phantom after all, or was he a brutal killer, and did a poor Hispanic young man have any chance within a justice system and a society that by it's actions seemed to regard him as disposable? —Deborah Rudolph
观众心声
纪录片 一件冤假错案，看了这个很多人会觉得废死还是有基础的 这种西部小镇氛围是不是像南方宗族一样 外面来的人天生被孤立
这么说的话，我也反对死刑，但只反对美国的……
[Liebman] The proper function of law is to establish the truth. And whatever the truth is, that’s what we really mean by justice. In this case, the truth didn’t come out. 法律的真正意义在于确定真相，不管真相是什么，这就是我们所谓的正义。但在这个案件中，真相并没有浮出水面。——没有经过法律确认的事实，没有经过刑事调查和审判的真相与罪行，也只有上帝和电视机前的观众看得到或自由心证了。
2021.10.13一个人在家看。该片分为3部分：假人，真人，牧师升华。最后一部分是高潮。真相只有一个，但何时到来永远成为心中那盏模糊的灯。5星。
Texas likes to kill people to show people that killing people is wrong. Well, sometimes they kill innocent people.
