"Curb Your Enthusiasm," an HBO show known for its acerbic wit, accidentally helped deliver a happy ending to a man who had been charged with murder.




Juan Catalan spent 5½ months in jail on murder charges before his attorney found video footage taken by the show at Dodger Stadium that backs up his client's claims of innocence.

even the most open and shut cases seem to have flaws

Once again the justice system is not perfect. So when a mistake is made and corrected we should celebrate not ridicule.
I have always said the police looks to a spouse to quickly.
There was one case I saw on TV the other night where the police said that an 80 year old man, who by the way was unable to walk, raped and killed his wife. It took 5 years to clear him.

:) i try not to be as sarcastic since the last time you put me in check.......im trying man....but that was an interesting story

Yes it was, I spend most of my day watching News, Court TV and the whole series of Discovery Channels. I am sickened by the police who never look beyond the spouse or parent in a homicide.
