1. True To Life
I love that show, I love all shows that are based on reality, (even though they claim they are not).
Many are actually "Ripped From The Headlines".
(It hasn't aired yet tonight where I live, I'm still waiting...)

3. THAT'S For Sure!
And MONEY.
Justice is unavailable for the indigent or the disadvantaged.
"The color of Justice is green", quote J. Scott Hornoff, former Law Enforcement Officer falsely accused and wrongfully convicted of murder. Even after the actual murderer confessed, Hornoff had to file court documents and pay thousands to be released from prison. He acredits his family for having the money. He served over 6 years.

5. Heartwrenching, All Right
What a good episode.
What's so sad is, these injustices occur all the time, and this show thoroughly explains HOW EASILY a person is wrongfully convicted, yet hard to free.

6. damn, I wanted to watch it
but my local ABC station decided to air college hockey. While I like hockey, I wasn't pleased in the least about this. Then they said they would follow hockey with the complete primetime lineup -- ended up with "Dancing with the Stars" and "20/20". Augh!
