In 1993 Texas, Carlos DeLuna, 21 years old, was arrested and tried for the murder of Wanda Lopez. DeLuna was found guilty and sentenced to death despite desperately protesting his innocence. This documentary sheds light on the corrupt justice system that executed an innocent man while leaving a dangerous killer at large.

A fascinating and ultimately infuriating documentary.

No one mentions it explicitly in the movie, but this film could be in the curriculum of a grad school course on Critical Race Theory, which is not, as some confused people claim, about diversity training in corporate offices or amending history books in grade school.

It’s pretty damn damning, to be honest.
