Summary

What is the greater crime? Missing a recording and pushing an episode back by a week … or using the full power of the state to prosecute a man for something he did not do, confining him in solitary as he awaits execution, and then appealing the remedy that he is awarded when exculpatory evidence (that the prosecution probably hid from the defense) resurfaces?

0:31.2	Michael is not here. His internet is out, according to him.
0:35.2	Let's just get into this. Do you believe him?
