The news quickly attracted a large number of reporters, and as her son disappeared, it was widely followed by newspapers and media. On the day of the meeting, when Collins couldn't wait to see the child who was called her own, she found out that it was not her child at all, and the sheriff didn't believe her at all, on the grounds that the incident had been policed. A full investigation by the bureau has confirmed that the child is Collins' missing son. Confused Collins had to comply with the sheriff's request, and the child who claimed to be his son accepted a photo with the media. Perhaps at this time, Collins was also wondering if he was, as the sheriff said, deranged because he couldn't accept the changes that had taken place in his son.
But when she brought the child home and bathed him, she saw that the child had been circumcised and was four inches shorter than the mark on the wall when he was measured the day his son disappeared. At this point, she was sure that she was not mistaken, it was the police department who made a mistake. She found the sheriff again, but the sheriff very rudely believed that Collins was unwilling to take on the responsibility of being a mother and wanted to put the responsibility of raising children on the government. To this end, Collins found a teacher at his son's school to testify to prove that he was not trying to shirk responsibility. At the same time, this incident was also known to the media. The police department felt that Collins would pose a threat to the honor of the police department, because he was worried about the previous Reports of police helping to find missing children will be the butt of public laughter. So, after Collins insisted in the police station that it was not his son, the sheriff put Collins in a lunatic asylum. In the lunatic asylum, there are many people like Collins who are also locked up for one reason or another, and they are normal people like Collins. But here, any attempt to justify it is a Tulau, and the more one tries to prove that he is normal, the more he will be considered abnormal, and he will be electrocuted to the head until he loses consciousness.
Just when Collins refused to be threatened by the head of the lunatic asylum and faced being electrocuted by signing a document admitting her mistake, she was saved by the unexpected discovery of a mass kidnapping of children's corpses. The police found a place where a large number of children's bones were buried, based on the self-report of a child who was forced to participate in the kidnapping. According to the confession, her son was also one of the victims. The public thus learned the truth, and some longtime opponents of the corrupt and arbitrary police department banded together to free her from the lunatic asylum.
Amid the mass protests, the police department was accused of using oppressive methods to cover up its faults. The sheriff and police chief were dismissed, and the killer was hanged two years later. After a while, a child who had escaped from the murderer was found. This child had tried to escape with Collins' son, but then they ran away from each other, so he did not know whether Collins' son was eventually captured by the murderer or not. Escaped like him. Although at the end of the film, Collins did not find her son, but this gave Collins a hope that she believed that her son was also waiting for her in another place at this time, just because she was afraid or for some reason did not dare to show up . Such an ending gives this heavy film a glimmer of hope and a glimmer of sustenance for kind audiences.
After watching the film, in addition to having infinite sympathy for Collins, I also felt the incomparably severe spiritual pain brought by the loss of a child, and the wound that will never heal. The film's meticulous portrayal of the perverted murderer before his execution is particularly profound. Such a murderer who killed dozens of innocent children also showed extreme fear when facing death: he said to the priest with trembling all over his body, "I Already confessed to God, he forgives me, doesn't he? The priest nodded. On his way to the death ladder, he begs the executioner not to let him go too fast.... This clip makes one feel the cruelty of the death penalty, even in the name of justice. Whether it is the death of the victim or the death of the murderer, it is cruel and tragic to civilized human beings. It may bring people pain, repayment, fear, comfort and helplessness, but it should never be the so-called "great happiness". Plus, the story shows how terrible it can be when power goes unchecked! It can deprive you of your freedom at any time, throw you into a lunatic asylum, and maybe give you a name like "Liu Yaling."
80 years ago, Americans had such fears, and now, thanks to public efforts, justice ties power and sunlight hides corruption. At the very least, Americans no longer have to worry about being put in a lunatic asylum at any time. And we have to face this fear all the time. According to the news in the newspaper today, a sports student was investigated in the Public Security Bureau because of the murder of a classmate, but died unexpectedly. I don't know, what kind of accident is this time? Since it is a sports student, there should be no diseases such as heart disease? You won't die if you touch it accidentally, will you? ! These days, do push-ups, hide and seek, and you will die if you don't do well! I felt insecure about it all the time, very scared. How about you?
