Key Witnesses | "48 Hours" Full Episodes

In some countries you cannot even start to question a youth with out a parent AND lawyer, also no one can be questioned for hours no matter the age.

Regarding the Johnson case: a certain Campbell, a friend of Johnson's, just like the victim, was arrested along with him. Nothing is revealed about the reason for the arrest, clues, evidences, witnesses etc. nor about the man himself. Johnson, however, later stated that Campbell had fired the shots. But there were two perpetrators. The police arrested one of them – apparently rightfully so. Only the second arrested man, Campbell's friend Johnson, was wrongfully arrested. He was innocent? An alibi from a girlfriend is of little value, as is measuring the distance and time to reach the crime scene, because it cannot be proven with certainty whether Johnson was actually at home at the time of the crime. His guilt was supposedly fabricated by the cops they say, but Campbell's wasn't? All three involved were questionable characters from the criminal underworld. I can hardly buy the whole story about bad cops and Johnson being wrongfully convicted.

They don’t want to be sued that is why his name is not cleared, it is all about money

So what happens to those who wrongfully convict innocent people?

he is wearing a gojira shirt. what murdereeerrrr

Why didn’t they test other shoes made of same material to see if the dog would hit on all of them?

I’m so angry & disgusted by this.. this poor kid was bullied & ultimately railroaded into this with no one in his corner at least as far as law enforcement..incredibly alarming & shameful for the perpetrators (AKA law enforcement & the judicial system)

He was out looking for Cougars, not Deer😅

Michael was innocent

Michael’s life was completely ruined by his father, the state of Missouri, his original lawyer, and his bff Josh.

After the end of the war and the Hitler dictatorship, people like Attorney General Eric Schmidt could be called "terrible lawyers" in Germany, and the Constitutional Court confirmed this. They were lawyers who concealed knowing injustice or even malicious attitudes and character behind formal legal subtleties or excuses.

the father who set him up, the friend who lied and framed him, and the pig cops who were so corrupt, along with the pig jury and the pig judge will have to suffer the consequences either in this life or after life. They are all cowards and rotten to the core.

Kids do say stupid things when young. But it doesn't mean he meant it. Motive.. what was it?

Good for that judge. It’s difficult to stand up amidst corruption . I’m sure he faced negative consequences for his decision. Unfortunately this happens more often than you would think, I see it in a forensic psych facility I work at. You could tell the judge’s opinion as soon as he heard the prosecutors opening statement

That Gant-Benalcazar guy acts like a wannabe Ted Bundy.

2nd story: 2 flaky slime-bags for the price of one!

I know it was a wrongful conviction. Just maybe that is what he needed to do some healing and not go off the deep end. No one knows what kind of trouble he would of gotten into if he hadn't gone to jail. Please don't come @ me. I only wish the best for him.

Those jurors were not caring enough to see there was not case against him… despicable..

First case with Michael, the reason the prosecution didn’t call his friend to testify is because they were focused only on a win. This is almost a Brady violation by them giving the kid immunity, which gives the perception that he’s got something to say, and then not calling him to testify. This isn’t justice, this was malicious prosecution of a juvenile so you can close a case and put up another win for the good guys! Ugh

Oh goodness cannot stop crying with happiness for Michael Politte. Have a great life my darling❣❣❣. Thank you for sharing x

So many of these cases where a shocked and bereaved person isn't allowed to grieve, because they are under scrutiny, being questioned and often wrongly accused.
