When They See Us
It's unbelievable what these boys went through, they were just kids. It's infuriating, it's unacceptable. It hurts to know that all this happened because the police failed, they already knew who they wanted to blame. Situations like this show how flawed the justice system is. Of course, much later justice was finally served, but what did it cost these boys? They lost years of their lives paying for a crime they didn't commit.
I didn't know much about the case before watching, but as things unfolded, I became disgusted and mad at the brutality with which the case was handled, how those boys were hurt. This is cruel, they almost completely destroyed the lives of five innocent boys.
I will never forget about them.
