EPISODE
The Innocent Man - Season 1
In a new documentary world, we are talking about a series of seemingly exciting events in a world of crime and murder. The series begins with the murder of Ron and Dennis in mysterious circumstances, where the investigations begin, and Tommy and Carl are given new confessions but the autopsy proves otherwise. On the other hand, the patent attorneys appeal to condemn the death of Ron and Dennis in those circumstances and lack of evidence.

The Innocent Man doubles as a slightly overwrought inquiry into the soul of the "real" America.

The tone too often swerves toward melodrama, and the timeline gets confusing as the small-town characters multiply.
