Há uma semana que assistir o filme e comecei pesquisar sobre a Betty Anne e encontrar algum testemunho da verdadeira Anne e não apenas da Anne do filme. Estou muito comovido com esse testemunho de força e perseverança. Agora nesse vídeo presente ao qual estou comentando, levei mais um golpe em meu coração ao saber que Kenny perdeu a vida nesse acidente, na queda que levou. É muito triste! Mas a memória dele permanece viva e mesmo do outro lado da vida nos ensina muito hoje. Parabéns Anne! Foi muito emocionante assistir o filme e muito mais ver a própria Anne falando do fato. Não posso descrever o sentimento...

Such compassion and determination and love for her brother!

She is so brave and smart and had faith in brother that he would never commit such a horrific murder. Happy for her and brother for finally live free of injustice. I just feel bad for the lady that was killed, till this day they never found her killer and never got justice for her.

This lady has the patience of Job......thats what it took to help her brother...I m getting to really like her..

[@thomasnorman9723]

Betty's brother is so fortunate his sister had what ever it took to not allow her anger take over her life about the govt's threatening witnesses, misrepresenting facts of the case....railroading her brother to a life sentence....you must have a real lawyer, a public defender is not good enough, especially in a murder trial....she realized this, she had to be the lawyer, what a hero sister....I want a sister like Betty Waters...today

[@thomasnorman9723]

she made it to law school, still she had fear yet she didnt let that stop her....she was more motivated then the Packers winning the 1967 Ice Bowl and she didnt have Vince Lombardi.....

[@thomasnorman9723]

reforming the justice system may never be possible...its like reforming a devil....

[@thomasnorman9723]

this Betty Waters could have been so angry about these police pressuring witnesses to lie under oath she could have never become a lawyer....somehow she found a way to place her feelings aside long enough to see her brother freed..

[@thomasnorman9723]

As Betty relates this story she does not seem upset, emotional about the injustice/guilt projected upon her brother by the govt'

[@thomasnorman9723]

gotta have a real lawyer, real lawyers refute witnesses testimony aggressively.....

[@thomasnorman9723]

She had a GED....Okay?....

[@thomasnorman9723]

real lawyers hire fingerpring experts to strengthen their clients case....public defenders dont hire anyone
