Gorilla Radio posted:This may not belong here, but Google isn't helping and I figured that one of you might have heard about this in life/class. A long time ago (2005) I took a criminal justice class and we watched a (1990's?) video about the dangers of falsely confessing. In the case, an entire poor, black neighborhood (I think? It was a large number of people)was arrested and charged with a crime (I think a felony). Those that could afford to wait sat in jail and were eventually let go. Those who could not plead guilty and were released, but had their lives ruined. Does this sound familiar to anyone? I think it was in Ohio or Iowa or one of those Midwestern states. Thanks. I saw this in my plea and sentencing clinic but I can't remember what it was called. I remember there was a lot of talking heads from the Southern Poverty Law Center if that helps you locate it. They basically arrested an entire housing project during a drug sweep and a lot of people were convinced to plead guilty. Later on I think a bunch of the pleas were withdrawn and the charges dropped because of various constitutional violations, but if I remember right the DA want on TV and said that he was sure all these people were guilty.
