8:45 This prosecutor is outrageous. She has the nerve to contend that the serial rapist who's dna is found inside the victim is not the rapist/murder, but four people who didn't leave a spec of dna at the scene are. This shows you what folks are up against out here. Some of these cops and prosecutors are just morally bankrupt.
She's coming up in the news again with what happened today. Real piece of work this lady, but really its the whole system you can see it must be lots of people who are corrupted, starting with the Mayor and this prosecutor.
Yobachi2007 This woman Alvarez is the cook county prosecutor who is covering up the Laquan McDonald murder in Chicago that is getting all these headlines.
The woman prosecutor know they were innocent but still hide and cover up for ratings it would make a bigger case for three innocent men to go down for the crime than one nobody serial rapest just to rise in life
that would be how it works in a place that isn't corrupt, entitled, and rendered blameless at the highest levels of government...that place...is not Chicago
Kudos to Bob Milan, the former prosecutor featured in this story, for having the moral rectitude to speak the truth and advocating for the exoneration of those who were wrongfully convicted. A pox on Ms. Alvarez.
I use to not understand false confessions. But now I realize that if you don't' know those people can lie to you, especially someone in an important role, you think reality has changed.
I never wish anything bad on people but I wish hope and pray that Anita Alvarez ends up in prison for the rest of her life. Put her in solitary. The amount of lives she has ruined and families she's torn apart can never be made up for. It's not even the fact that she played a part in the wrongful convictions, the thing that makes me see her as evil-incarnate is the way she still tries to deny innocence when DNA proves it beyond a shadow of a doubt. It's like she was born without a soul. A heartless soulless woman who deserves a special place in hell.
Wrongful convictions, and the settlements to those who've spent an extensive amount of time in prison, wrongfully, is one of the reasons why the city of Chicago, the county of Cook, and the state of Illinois, are in such a deficit situation.
I'm watching this in tears right now. I am gutted for these men and know there are many more like them who were tortured into signing their lives away. The Chicago PD is a complete embarrassment and Anita Alvarez is a horrible SA. I am continually disgusted by my city and wonder why I continue to live here.
I've never been to law school but common sense tells me if someone's DNA was found inside a homicide victim, they just might have something to do with the murder!! SMH
This woman is a special kind of evil smh WOW If I hadn't just watch this I would have thought this was unreal. I'm still in shock that this person exists
And this is who you put in this position? This is the woman you trust with law and order? This is who the State of Illinois has its representative? This is who speaks for the victims by creating victims?
Prosecutors in Chicago are not allowed to dismiss cases the majority of the time. EVEN if they KNOW its a bs case. "I know this is a bs case but I cant dismiss it because my supervisor wont let me." Chicago Police union (no one gets fired) added with a prosecutor who does not wish for justice but seeks to win is the problem.
It takes humility for the prosecution to admit they were wrong and that just rarely happens. I wonder how they would feel if it happened to them or their loved one. The young man who’s mother died. It was probably a stress related illness due to the extreme worry of her innocent child being in prison.
By 'false confession', they mean coerced confessions. It's typical that after counsel the defendant is takes back their confession, but the reality is that true false confessions are extremely rare phenomena, especially in the Western world.
For the love of God! Can someone please tell me how to watch, hell, where to even friggin' find this whole damn documentary without contaminating my last nerve with a Netflix account? Thank you.
I believe Attorney Alvarez knows these two cases are bogus. She refuses to admit grave miscarriage of justice were committed against these two sets of kids. She is not concerned about their cases, which are former cases, but instead, she is afraid of the implications of these cases for current and future cases, which are similar.
So sad. This has happened so many times. Reminds me of the West Memphis 3. In the not so distant past, they would beat false confessions out of people.
caught with your drawers down, will never own up to their heinous errors. "justice is blind." never when the melanated ones step into a court room. old lady always removed the blindfold! and those people cannot understand why life for them is in the trash can!......oh what a tangle web we weave when we first practice to deceive! for many of you who are wondering why things are falling all around and on you. go inward and look at your life on how you have treated yourself and others. light, healing, love and peace to humanity. No Maat on planet earth! Tua-u (thank you) to the Ancient Ancestors and Herukhuti for bringing justice and righteousness forth for these innocent young men!
Alvarez is heartless, evil and sinister.....anyone who can elevate their career at the expense of innocent black men/boys has no soul. I hope this sparks a serious investigation behind the law practices of the DA's office in the state of Illinois, and I hope this shows everyone across the world that although Chicago is a beautiful place to visit, but it's by far the worst place live. (I mean that!!!!)
This is how the system eats! Every level of the process knows this from the police report to, the judge, to the jailer....this is why the confession is beat out of motherfuckas because it has been decided that it, the confession, trumps everything. This is why the confessions are written by the police and signed by the suspects.
Shouldn't any and everything pertaining to #BYEANITA as an unabias/impartial person of law be eliminated from the records to prevent this witch from have an ( unearned) honorable legacy.
Chgo has never gotten it right regarding its SA office's prosecution of minority defendants. "Never" may not b fair, but the scale of justice 4 minorities is historically uneven. The injustices levied on minorities are systematic practices dating back50yrs+.It is ingrrained w/origins back 2 the reign of RJ Daley. "The Boss"controlled vryting that went on.His edict posthumously reigns; as showed by Alvarez going w/the status quo. She needs a reality√& balls 2 admit that the sys is flawed..
Come on lady... really.. we aren’t that stupid. The DNA is everything. If these guys you put away had no physical evidence, they’re not my guilty. You should be given life for your selfishness. I wonder how much money you made from having these guys locked up. You know these guys are innocent. Give it up people.
8:45 This prosecutor is outrageous. She has the nerve to contend that the serial rapist who's dna is found inside the victim is not the rapist/murder, but four people who didn't leave a spec of dna at the scene are.

+Yobachi2007 Man, that "B" needs to be stomped! Twice!
Hanky Dubs What happen that's new?
Yobachi2007 This woman Alvarez is the cook county prosecutor who is covering up the Laquan McDonald murder in Chicago that is getting all these headlines.
The woman prosecutor know they were innocent but still hide and cover up for ratings it would make a bigger case for three innocent men to go down for the crime than one nobody serial rapest just to rise in life
shouldn't this prosecutor be prosecuted herself for falsely convicting innocent people?
that would be how it works in a place that isn't corrupt, entitled, and rendered blameless at the highest levels of government...that place...is not Chicago
And daley was state attorney
Kudos to Bob Milan, the former prosecutor featured in this story, for having the moral rectitude to speak the truth and advocating for the exoneration of those who were wrongfully convicted. A pox on Ms. Alvarez.
He moved up the ranks on plenty of cases like this. So dont be so quick. They all are apart of the same hypocracy!1
Interrogating kids under 18 without parental consent should be against the law. These prosecutors have no shame.
I use to not understand false confessions. But now I realize that if you don't' know those people can lie to you, especially someone in an important role, you think reality has changed.
Chicago PD=To serve and protect... Themselves.
Anita Alvarez owes the individuals profiled in this story a public apology.
I never wish anything bad on people but I wish hope and pray that Anita Alvarez ends up in prison for the rest of her life. Put her in solitary. The amount of lives she has ruined and families she's torn apart can never be made up for.

My blood is boiling.
Those cops need to go to prison
Wrongful convictions, and the settlements to those who've spent an extensive amount of time in prison, wrongfully, is one of the reasons why the city of Chicago, the county of Cook, and the state of Illinois, are in such a deficit situation.
I'm watching this in tears right now. I am gutted for these men and know there are many more like them who were tortured into signing their lives away.

She's saying dna doesn't matter but false confession does. That woman is evil!
I've never been to law school but common sense tells me if someone's DNA was found inside a homicide victim, they just might have something to do with the murder!! SMH
Pressure and scare tactics and abusive questioning
This woman is a special kind of evil smh WOW If I hadn't just watch this I would have thought this was unreal. I'm still in shock that this person exists
THIS STATE'S ATTORNEY IS SO, SO, SO CORRUPT THAT I'M DISCUSSED...
Brickpaving Artificial turf What are you discussing?
So as he said if the suspect already confessed, the DNA is not matter anymore. So... blaming a person for raping would be so easy...
These kids need to educated in grade school about these things, they really don't know being afraid and all.
This is proof that prosecutors value convictions more than the truth.
Put all police in prison who write false confessions ! The Dixmoor 5 police need 20 yrs each payment for the lies for there 20yrs they spent in prison
And this is who you put in this position? This is the woman you trust with law and order? This is who the State of Illinois has its representative? This is who speaks for the victims by creating victims?
Thank You Robert J. Milan for admitting you made a mistake. Something so simple yet so difficult.
A Must see for #CriminalDefenseLawyers
#CriminalDefenseAttorney #FalseConfessions
Sara M. Gaborik
If the interrogations were video taped the case would been thrown out.
That female prosecutor needs another job. She is not fit to hold the public trust.
Prosecutors in Chicago are not allowed to dismiss cases the majority of the time. EVEN if they KNOW its a bs case.
"I know this is a bs case but I cant dismiss it because my supervisor wont let me."
Chicago Police union (no one gets fired) added with a prosecutor who does not wish for justice but seeks to win is the problem.
Coerced and beat
It takes humility for the prosecution to admit they were wrong and that just rarely happens. I wonder how they would feel if it happened to them or their loved one. The young man who’s mother died. It was probably a stress related illness due to the extreme worry of her innocent child being in prison.
Put her in jail.
dixmoor five rape lawsuit 40 million; they ask you o give a statement, then ask you to sign it then tell the judge we got a confession
By 'false confession', they mean coerced confessions. It's typical that after counsel the defendant is takes back their confession, but the reality is that true false confessions are extremely rare phenomena, especially in the Western world.
every city in amerikkka has a central park 5
Anita Alvarez has the coldest eyes and heart in the USA!
It’s worst when they won’t admit when they are wrong. Anita Alvarez
If she herself has really doubt...that should be admissible.
why do the people of cook county keep electing alvarez?????
She just doesn't have a sorry inside her cold heart.
Confessions should be admissible only when given in the court. Anyone can confess a crime.
This sounds like racism had a part to it including refusal to accept there innocent
Facts it always does
For the love of God! Can someone please tell me how to watch, hell, where to even friggin' find this whole damn documentary without contaminating my last nerve with a Netflix account? Thank you.
Sounds like you have a serious problem with Netflix.
Anita Alvarez is a damon, she is not human.
I believe Attorney Alvarez knows these two cases are bogus. She refuses to admit grave miscarriage of justice were committed against these two sets of kids. She is not concerned about their cases, which are former cases, but instead, she is afraid of the implications of these cases for current and future cases, which are similar.
So sad. This has happened so many times. Reminds me of the West Memphis 3. In the not so distant past, they would beat false confessions out of people.
People like Anita Alvarez brought Chicago to it's knees.
Remember Alveras........The most hated female DA in Illinois.
These prosecutors hate to lose they act like that what keep them breathing
That woman is a demon she they worng no evidence is no case
Does the innocence project fight for women?
caught with your drawers down, will never own up to their heinous errors. "justice is blind." never when the melanated ones step into a court room. old lady always removed the blindfold! and those people cannot understand why life for them is in the trash can!......oh what a tangle web we weave when we first practice to deceive! for many of you who are wondering why things are falling all around and on you. go inward and look at your life on how you have treated yourself and others. light, healing, love and peace to humanity. No Maat on planet earth! Tua-u (thank you) to the Ancient Ancestors and Herukhuti for bringing justice and righteousness forth for these innocent young men!
Cook County States Attorney Anita Alvarez, gives off sinister vibes. Maybe someday she will be charged with something.
Why? Because of psycologycal torture
Not surprised...
Alvarez looks like she's being extorted in her position....she always looks weak and afraid.1
Alvarez is a sad individual.
If you keep voting for these politions you'll get the same unfair justice.
Alvarez is heartless, evil and sinister.....anyone who can elevate their career at the expense of innocent black men/boys has no soul. I hope this sparks a serious investigation behind the law practices of the DA's office in the state of Illinois, and I hope this shows everyone across the world that although Chicago is a beautiful place to visit, but it's by far the worst place live. (I mean that!!!!)
What she say does not make any sense self contradiction part 8.45
That's why Alvarez is gone. She's corrupt and I'm not saying this happens all the time. This is real DNA is the answer.
Pior que errar é não admitires o erro mesmo quando todos já viram o erro é preciso ser mau caráter, mas isso já é o mais normal nas autoridades.
This is how the system eats! Every level of the process knows this from the police report to, the judge, to the jailer....this is why the confession is beat out of motherfuckas because it has been decided that it, the confession, trumps everything.

You and Linda Fairstein must be related. You’re both delusional and need some serious help.
it's hard out there for a pimp.
