Surely

[edit]

Bobby DeLaughter: (to Delmar) I don't see what difference it makes if a man is bushwhacked yesterday, today, or twenty-seven damn years ago. Murder is murder. And it's still my job to bring the son of a bitch to justice. And it's still my job to help me.

Surely "still your job to help me"? Flapdragon 23:16, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)

"Conviction Overturned" citation

[edit]

I removed this statement cited to a book written before Beckwith died. His conviction was upheld on 12/23/1997, not vacated on that date. Don't take my word for it, read it here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.173.224.32 (talk) 17:32, 18 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Removed "Later Events" section

[edit]

A section called "Later Events" was formed, including the death of de la Beckwith and the conviction of DeLaughter. While both are true, both have nothing to do with the movie. The movie is a drama using the conviction of de la Beckwith as a plot device. What happened to the prosecutor and defendant afterwards doesn't concern the movie. Maybe in the article about the trial is where those two events should be located, but not in the movie Scryer_360 (talk) 17:28, 4 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
