Hard Time - Unschuldig verurteilt

Its interesting that this television film came out at the same time the big budget, big screen version of the Hurricane did. It re-created interest in the Hurricane Carter case and the injustice he suffered, but Milgaards is not as well known and that is indeed a shame because the injustice inflicted on him is in many ways worse then the one Carter suffered. Milgaard and his family were finally awarded $20,000,000 in compensation but of course nothing can bring back what was taken from this poor man. Imprisoned between 1969 and 1992. He was only 17 years old when his hell began and 40 when it ended. The best years of his life gone stolen by a hellish nightmare. If we had only had forensic DNA analysis back then Milgaard's ordeal need never have occured.

When I first seen this Movie all I kept thinking was the Title: Hard Times...being a perfect description towards what David went through! I know he lost many years & couldn't get back! I hope his Legacy is Carried out now he's Passed. & how No 1 should go through what he Experienced! I can't find this Movie anywhere & I hope it can be aired once again! What he went through should be a Reminder of Strength & Courage & the will of facing our Challenges! Now his tough Journey is through he's @ Peace! I hope his Life Experience Encounter can educate us... how to Stand Strong with what we may face.
