Sorry, I can't seem to get the embeded link for this video and if I write the summary out, the impact and various messages would not be captured. It's about the impact of being jailed despite committing no crime and the number of years they have to serve before they are being exonerated, and despite being freed from jail, psychologically, they are still being chained to their past experiences in the jails and their tainted records. Beside the messages which are mentioned in the clips, the following questions ran through my mind: doesn't each one of us have such wounds inflicted upon us in some time within our life span? Even small things like not returning borrowed items from acquaintance. Aren't we similar to these people in these sense? That some of these wounds left permanent scars on our psychological being? How can we avoid such tragedies from happening? Or at least reduce them to the minimal? Just occurred to me that I'm getting more questions but lesser answers...>~<...maybe I'm getting too tired/brain juice can't replenish at the same rate...
The URL's http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/burden/view/7_hi.html and the other videos, or rather chapters, are also as important, just that this video summarises the whole issue promptly and neatly, as said by our lecturer.
