John Lennon: Murder Without a Trial

Interesting recap of the Lennon murder with interviews of the people who were actually on scene. The now retired cops sound real and seem out of central casting. The CIA and FBI are brought into it but doesn't really go anywhere with that line so the end focus is on the sentencing and parole hearings. Parallel to the Hinckley trial and eventual release is made, kind of a progressive view which probably makes some sense here. If Chapman is no longer being punished and the public safety is not at risk why keep him in jail 43 years later? At some point he should do like Red in Shawshank and give up on parole, then it will happen.
