The Injustice Files

著者: David Steele
  • サマリー

  • This is a podcast about injustice experienced by innocent US citizens subjected to the bias, discrimination, inherent latent racism and corruption in the US criminal justice system. We feature people falsely imprisoned for years and decades, and sometimes executed when they were innocent of the crimes for which they were convicted. We witness hidden exculpatory evidence, police who abuse, torture and beat innocent citizens into false guilty pleadings and coerced confessions. We witness how the US justice system clearly outnumbers and overwhelms all but the most wealthy among us. We see how a typical US citizen, once accused, is the mythical man that brings a knife to a gunfight. Sometimes the gun is a pistol, sometimes an AK47, other times a 50mm machine gun, and occasionally an Abrams tank., Regardless of caliber, the weapon is used to ostensibly protect the rest of us 'law abiding' citizens. One way or another, we voted this system into existence, or we approved willingly in one way or another; by shouting approvingly of criminal convictions by any means, or sat idly by but still voting for 'law and order' candidates to protect ourselves and whom we love from criminality exaggerated by politicians, police and prosecutors.

  • S1EP1P7Bloodsworth Part VII Spotlight on Justice
    2019/12/04

    In this, our first episode of The Injustice Files, we reach back into the roots of DNA testing in England and then the US, with the first exoneration in the US using DNA technology.

    In 1987, Kirk was found guilty and sentenced to death for the rape and murder of a nine year old girl near Baltimore MD. Some years later, Kirk read about DNA technology and pushed his lawyers to use it to test evidence. Eventually, even after a second trial failed to exonerate him, Kirk persisted and the lab found evidence implicating another.

    This is fitting as the case of Kirk Bloodsworth happened in Maryland the same state in which this podcast is developed and recorded. Kirk lived on the Eastern Shore, which is quite different from where we live in Rockville and Silver Spring MD.

    A case related to this was discussed in  our Introduction episode (S1EP0) Part VII Spotlight on Justice, we looked at the case Kirk drew upon to push testing that eventually exonerated him and returned him home; the Pitchfork case from Lechistier England.
