Jul 25, 2013Excellent documentary. Riveting, moving. And the horrendous nature of this particular event triggers an extraordinarily balanced presentation of the arguments about the death penalty.

Nov 20, 2021One of the most shocking murder cases I’ve ever seen and all done to the police not doing their jobs properly. RIP

[A] desperately sad yet compelling doc digs deep into the events that led to and followed the tragedy. [26 Jul 2013, p.62]

It makes for an intense two hours.

There is much more to the story than the graphic details of the invasion and whether the police could have intervened earlier. The case became a pivotal issue in the debate over the death penalty in Connecticut and that's a big part of the film.
