    Both riveting and disturbing.

    Taylor does her cause no real favors by trotting out only the most articulate, most clearly railroaded exonerees. It should be just as chilling to learn that even the shady get screwed.

    Bothered by Barry Scheck's role (he helped get O.J. off), but otherwise this is a nice piece of work.
