Somehow I vdeotaped this back in the early 1980's perhaps on HBO?? What a moving story about something that could happen to anybody. The frustration of the family getting no cooperation from the law, the law protecting every right of the criminal, the justice system cutting deals to avoid court costs, the system allowing this loser out of prison to begin with, and the pursuit of a private investigator.
I think I need to dig the VHS out of my collection and revisit this riveting story.
Perhaps it should be covered on A&E's Cold Case Files or better yet, American Justice (or lack of it)!
Great performances by the real people (not professional actors).
