I know someone who lived there, and knew the victim's (Brow) daughter very well. Cops don't frame. I worked in a PD. And... in the state of Massachusetts it is a conflict of interest and Bias reaction to legally represent ANY family members. How could she get a case and legally represent him? Also, who will play Alicia Brow daughter of Kathy Brow? This woman was brutally murdered. Also B.A. Waters worked in the diner, not her brother. He lived right behind Brow. Usually, robberies, rapes, murders, all happen to victims connected with the perputrators, it is usually not a random act. Let's be throuough people and do not hurt people when writing about an actual crime and there are people still alive who remember it and are still living it.

Well all i have to say is DNA don't lie, Police do. It happens all the time. They get away with more crime b/c they have the means to cover it up. Betty Anne worked hard on this case, while raising two children. I'am sorry that the woman died, it is truley sad, but even sader when the real killer is walking around. I understand Kenneth had a record and made a bad name for himself, but he was innocent. The state now paid that family 3.4 million dollars, b/c Kenny was alao a victim in that case. I'am so happy he was set free. Can you imagine spending 20 years in jail for something you didn't do. I hope Nancy Taylor goes to jail. If you are so sure about things, did you know she framed another man from that town. He is also free. I hope you don't live in Ayre b/c they will be giving out another couple million to that family as well. This movie is going to be great, great cast, producers and of course the director. I'am sure Kenneth's family is still in pain over this story as well. I'am pround of the Waters family for not giving up, the story is about them. Not so much of the person who was killed. I can't wait to see the movie, i have been following it all along. Don't be bitter towards this family. Your concern should be on the real killer and the police dept who screwed up. The Waters family did something right, your talking and thinkg about them. They also have a movie in thier name, not to mention the reward of 3.4 million.
