Synopsis : For every innocent man sent to
prison, there is a guilty one left on the outside. He doesn’t understand
how the police and prosecutors got the wrong man, and he certainly
doesn’t care. He just can’t believe his good luck. Time passes and he
realizes that the mistake will not be corrected: the authorities believe
in their case and are determined to get a conviction. He may even watch
the trial of the person wrongly accused of his crime. He is relieved
when the verdict is guilty. He laughs when the police and prosecutors
congratulate themselves. He is content to allow an innocent person to go
to prison, to serve hard time, even to be executed.
