There is so much wrong with this article, to the point that it is a travesty. At no point is it made clear that the six accused were found guilty purely on the basis of confessions that they allegedly made whilst in police custody, being kept in solitary confinement for as long as 655 days, denied access to lawyers and subjected to sleep deprivation, simulated drowning (although "water torture" is mentioned), sexual assaults and being drugged. Nor that no evidence was presented that corroborated those confessions: no bodies, no witnesses and no forensic evidence were presented to the court. Nor that all the accused are considered by experts to have been suffering from false memory syndrome. Nor that a subsequent investigatory commission found that the confessions were entirely unreliable and had been "fabricated". Nor that the murder cases were reopened in 2015, and that two men were arrested in June 2016 in connection with the murders. Skinsmoke (talk) 14:53, 19 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. After reading this article and watching the documentary, my nagging question is, Where in the heck are their lawyers? Why were the subjects allowed to languish instead of being told by a lawyer that they did not have to be interrogated any longer? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Beast1boo (talk • contribs) 18:18, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
