In the name of the father--some little rants of mine

In the name of my father, I have watched too many movies of this type, and I have doubts about the law. Will the law really uphold justice?

Qiu Li is clearly innocent, but the policeman who is eager for quick success is regarded as a murderer and imprisoned for 15 years! Friends, aunts, relatives, and fathers who were also involved also died in prison.

As the female lawyer said, is he guilty? However, he appeared near the blast site on the night of the incident, and he was regarded as the murderer. He was sentenced to life imprisonment by the court, and was beaten by the police.

When my father died, I saw countless people in the prison lit the paper balls and threw them downstairs, as if illuminating the dark road, and burst into tears in an instant. Julie inherited his father's last wish, appealed to rehabilitate, and in the name of his father, in the name of truth, restored the innocence of innocent people.

The generous resignation of the female lawyer Mrs. Pei in the court made my blood boil. The grievance was finally rehabilitated, and I was very happy. Julie cleared his name and acquitted him. However, it will take a full fifteen years! Fifteen years, there are several fifteen years in life.

They were wrongfully imprisoned, and the housewife's aunt was wrongly accused of being an accomplice in making explosives and sentenced to 14 years! Even my seventeen-year-old and fourteen-year-old cousins ​​were also sentenced to prison!

Fifteen years, what's the use of late justice? Can their lost youth be made up for? Can the dead father come back? How does the law uphold justice? Those cops who threatened to falsely testify against Julie could be punished by law in the end!

It's a bit messy

    Gerry Conlon: I'm an innocent man. I spent 15 years in prison for something I didn't do. I watched my father die in a British prison for something he didn't do. And this government still says he's guilty. I want to tell them that until my father is proved innocent, until all the people involved in this case are proved innocent, until the guilty ones are brought to justice, I will fight on. In the name of my father and of the truth!
