Unschuldig verurteilt?

As an ID 'addict', I may be biased but 'Reasonable Doubt' is one of ID's better shows. Both Melissa and Chris are very professional, courteous, and seem totally unbiased. I'm curious to know how the producers are choosing these cases. As it seems the show is relying on communication from family and friends of convicted murderers, who obviously believe in their loved ones' innocence. However, everyone is capable of killing someone! No exceptions! Despite alleged errors in an investigation or a trial, people need to understand and accept that there is no human incapable of killing. Melissa and Chris show all sides of these cases and I don't understand how anyone can disagree with their findings. Good production!

If ID TV is really seriously interested in helping families determine if their lived ones are innocent or guilty-- Chris Anderson is NOT the person to send for the job. He NEVER truly asks the "tough questions" nor the right questions. He's too argumentative any judgemental for the job. The show would be much more informative and conclusive without him as the detective/investigator.

I've watched a lot of these episodes and I've always had mixed feelings about who they choose to believe and who they choose not to believe. But after watching the episode about David Thorn, I'm very confident in saying that Christopher Anderson is racist. This is very controversial for me to say, but if you watch the show, and pay attention to his mannerisms and expressions to any evidence that would exonerate David, you will see that Chris's mind was made up from the beginning. I've never seen so much evidence get met with, "yeah buts," and blatant disregard until this episode. I've seen plenty of cases that Chris and Fatima chose to pursue with significantly less evidence than what David's case had to prove that there needs to be another look. Interestingly enough, go check the races of those cases they chose to pursue! Plus the way Chris and Fatima treated David's friend and wife was just appalling!! I'll never watch this show again. If they named the show, "Reasonable Doubt for minorities," than there would be no issue.

Overall, I enjoy this show for its efforts in trying to get to the bottom of cases that might have been mishandled. The particular case in reference is so irritating due to Miss Betty busybody poking her nose in where it doesn't belong. I feel for every family member that my or may not accept reality, but this goofball needs to sideline.

I will say this is a decent show despite the fact that you learn that most of these people are guilty of the crime that they've been already found guilty of. Although, I did learn just how often these families truly feel their loved ones are innocent despite hard evidence that says otherwise. It's sad honestly.
