Summary |
Eight men charged. Five confessions. But only one DNA match. Why would four innocent men confess to a brutal crime they didn't commit? Program investigates the conviction of four men--current and former sailors in the U.S. Navy--for the rape and murder of a Norfolk, Va., woman in 1997. In the first television interviews with the "Norfolk Four" since their release, Bikel learns of some of the high-pressure police interrogation techniques -- the threat of the death penalty, sleep deprivation, intimidation -- that led each of the men to confess, despite the lack of any evidence linking them to the crime. |
Contents |
Incredibly, how it all began -- No DNA match, they go after another -- And still no DNA match -- Inside the interrogation room -- An unexpected turn, and astonishing new theory -- What's next. |
