    The engrossing “How to Fix a Drug Scandal” might have been ripped from “Law & Order’”—if the new four-part series weren’t a thrilling piece of nonfiction.

Once again, we see incompetence and ass covering by the people who are supposed to be the good guys; the prosecution. Time and time again, innocent people go to jail due to police and prosecutors looking to wrap up a case in a neat bow instead of seeking the truth.… Full Review »
