A Murder in the Park

Convicted of murder and sentenced to death in 1983, Anthony Porter was released from prison in 1998 after a group of journalism students apparently discovered that a man named Alstory Simon was the real killer. After confessing, Simon claimed he was coerced into doing so as part of an anti-death penalty movement in Illinois. So who is telling the truth? This bracing true-crime documentary attempts to shed new light on this complex, fascinating case. 91 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital 5.1; Subtitles: English (SDH), Spanish.
