Watched 8 episodes now and are at the point of Stevens guilty verdict and the commencement of the young blokes trial. Amazing story really. It would have been nice to hear what favourable evidence the prosection was able to introduce. Because it all appeared tainted. No doubt the doco was made from this perspective, but their claims seem reasonable. Plenty of doubt imo. During the prosecutors closing argument, he said something along the lines of "Reasonable doubt is only for innocent people"
My god, reasonable doubt is for everyone. Unless there was a lot more evidence produced at the trial that we didn't see, the only thing in my mind was severe doubt. Probably the only thing the defence didn't do was to produce a viable alternative suspect. But they certainly produced plenty of doubt, even if the couldn't actually prove the corrupt police angle. And the thing about that is, its not the job of the defence to prove somebody innocent, its the job of the prosecution to prove someone guilty, and there were so many unanswered question imo.
