I recently watched a documentary on Netflix called long shot. I watched it because one of my friends told me to watch it. This documentary was very interesting that is why I also advice others to watch it. It is basically about someone who is convicted of a death but he is innocent. The documentary had a lot of key components of why this person was convicted for instance he had been a witness to his bother in which the victim was at that same court case as well. Therefore the law enforcement suspected he wanted revenge therefore he decided to take this women’s life. On the other hand he knew he was innocent and even though. The person that does the profile drawings had drawn someone who looked exactly like him. There were also witnesses so stated they had seen him murder this young 19 year girl. He knew in his heart he had not committed this crime.

As the documentary went on he stated that he knew about this lawyer who was amazing. He then hired this lawyer to help him with his case. The lawyer accepted after hearing his story.  The lawyer then went on to find out every little detail of the case and how to solve it. The person that was being accused told the lawyer that he had been at a Doggers game. He had not only been a doggers game by himself but he had take his daughter and friends. Then the lawyer had to get proof that his client had been at the doggers game at the exact moment the women had been killed. He went through camera footage but it wasn’t great quality. Therefore he noticed that there was a movie that was being corded that day with a famouse actor. So he contacted them to see if they would let him review the tapes to see if he could find this one person among so many people at the game. After he was able to find it the times did not coensist. But at the end the man was found innocent the officers that arrested him said they had persuaded the witnesses so that they could get money and so they were fired. This is a tragic story of what people do for money. They are able to put someone else of death row just to get cash in their pocket.
