    Discuss 'Circle of Friends'

    What did you think of the case? Should police be allowed to threaten and lie to witnesses during questioning -- telling them they have eyewitnesses to a crime or that someone has confessed? Do you think police lies and threats of prison can cause a person to falsely accuse another? Share your thoughts by leaving a comment below.

    The full report will be viewable online tomorrow, Saturday.

    Jared and Dace didn't make up any story. They simply went along with the story that the police gave to them. They were told that Ryan confessed and that they would go to jail if they didn't admit guilt and go along with the story.

    You shouldn't rely on those 'peer-journals' either, seeing as how most studies are FINANCED BY THE DRUG AND VACCINE COMPANIES in whole or part.

    Discuss: The Case of the Merry Widow

    It looked like the perfect crime -- a puzzling killing that went unsolved for years, with no eyewitnesses, and no solid evidence. It involved a devoted husband and father who was shot to death in his own home. His wife, Jennifer Shanbrom, was shaken -- it seemed she narrowly escaped the gunman herself. But shortly after the funeral, the questions started: Was this widow grieving... or celebrating? Keith Morrison reports on "The Case of the Merry Widow."

    Read the transcript of the report here. Video of this report will not be available on the Web.

    While I agree that the water bottle theory is pure speculation and the case is circumstantial, I think the People proved their case. I worked with Jeffrey Jones, the district attorney in the case, when I first started my career as a court reporter.

    I watched this program last night and still don't get how this police chief cracked the case. Was there no reasonable doubt, was it proved 100%? I don't think so.
