The actor who portrayed Thornton did a good job making his character believable. You actually felt sorry for the guy, knowing that he was the victim of massive injustice. His bitterness and determination to seek revenge on the person who ruined his life was understandable. Highway Patrol episodes are _always_ entertaining, but this one was better than usual.

he didn't handcuff the guy at first when they brought him in for questioning, but they did handcuff him in the end when he had the guy who he supposedly killed but anyways the gun belonged to the criminal who faked his own death and had all the stolen goods so in reality the one who should be getting arrested and convicted is him, and the one who was falsely incarcerated for 13 years should be getting paid back for the years of his life he will never get back and I don't think he should be charged of nothing, he didn't harm the guy he just tied him up and scared him

LOL Arrested him for carrying a gun. What’s the basis for that? Good thing they still practiced jury nullification. I think they’d have a hard time making that stick, especially since he was wrongfully convicted to begin with. Assaulting a police officer would have been more believable.

12021 my foot. Wouldn't stand up once the murder conviction is overturned, obviously. But they can get him on 459, 245, and 236/237 easily. 3 new felonies because of the one he didn't do. Ironic. If he had killed him, i wonder if they could have upped it to murder one, premeditation, and given him a longer sentence with credit for the 13 years he did? There's a concept. Any attorneys out there know?
@fungidungie5 жыл бұрын
They can't bring a 2nd degree charge and then recharge him with 1st, but they can bring both charges together in the original trial, as it is the crime, not the charge that matters, in regard to double jeopardy. This is my understanding.
@paulmentzer76585 жыл бұрын
First these are two different crimes, the murder 13 years before will stand but the Defendant can petition the court to strike it as not supported by the evidence now known to exist. The killing of his former partner at the time of this show would be an entirely new charge for an entirely new crime. Also remember the show begins with the Defendant having served his time moved from his state to this one. Thus the murder of 13 years before would remain in the exclusive jurisdiction of that state, while the new murder would be in the exclusive jurisdiction of the state the Defendant killed his partner.

Many of your comments miss the crucial point. Thornton has already been convicted of murdering "Sawyer". He has served his sentence of 13 years, and has absolved himself legally. Killing him now will not alter Thornton's conviction or his completion of the prison sentence. "He can kill him legally;" sounds unbelievable but recall the great film "Double Jeopardy". I love this series--even more direct and in your face than Perry Mason.
