Yes. Thinking about doing right is always the best case scenario. If people would stop and ask themselves if this is the right thing to do before doing the deed, we would all be better off for sure. Our story is mainly about individuals who have been arrested and convicted of crimes they never had anything to do with. Along the way we are exploring the deluges of the U.S. criminal justice system as it stands. When you have inequalities of justice based on economic factors, it stands to reason that a story is here to tell. In most countries, when a sentence is absolved, the debt is considered paid to society. In America, that sentence by way of your criminal record stays with you forever (in the case of felonies), thus never being absolved and thereby creating the stance of a life sentence for most individuals who wish to better their lives. Is this really fair? You can argue both sides of course. But when you look at the legal factors along the way that resulted in someone getting convicted of felonies you can see a pattern that is going nowhere fast. There simply is not enough time, money, and courtrooms to take every single case to trial. So the result is most felony cases absent of capital sexual battery and murder, never go to trial and pleas are entered. Most individuals would rather take a plea of probation to avoid a prison sentence. But when that happens something is lost. The system needs to be rehabilitated. And there is a certain amount of intimidation in the legal system anyway. When an arrest is made there is already a prevailing notion of guilt, in that if the person was truly innocent he or she would have never been arrested in the first place.
In most states including Florida where we are located, universities and colleges prevent individuals from pursuing certain healthcare majors simply based on a felony criminal record even though that felony had nothing to do with healthcare. We have an interview with a lady who was convicted of felonies arising out of the hurricane that swept thru Homestead years ago. She wished to pursue a medical degree but was stopped at the front door purely on the basis of her felony record. Her situation is mirrored by countless others as well.
The problem for us is how to condense thousands of cases into a two hour movie.
