BrasscheckTV: When police and DAs lie‏

How often do police and district attorneys
deliberately frame and jail innocent people
with fraudulent "evidence?"
 
No one knows, but it's not uncommon.
 
What's the consequences for the police
and DAs involved on those rare occasions
when the truth comes out?

www.DemocracyNow.org - Sonia Jacobs and Peter Pringle each served years on death row -- Jacobs here in the United States and Pringle in Ireland. Both gained freedom after their convictions were overturned for murders that they steadfastly maintained they did not commit. They began dating shortly after meeting while both publicly campaigning against the death penalty. Their wedding earlier this month was perhaps the first of its kind -- the union of two exonerated death row inmates. Joining us from their home in Ireland, Sunny Jacobs and Peter Pringle recount their remarkable story from death row to the wedding altar. Democracy Now! interviewed the couple about their experience, new-found love, and their anti-death penalty activism.
