Hurricane

[H2O Man]

19. I'll "kick" this

for a couple of reasons. First, I think the legal case of Rubin "Hurricane" Carter is hugely important. F. Lee Bailey called it the most important habeas corpus case of the 20th century. It documents how the misdeeds of two police investigators -- who may have believed Carter was involved, though they knew he was not a gunman -- can infect the entire legal process. Also, it shows how the human spirit can overcome injustice and hatred.

Second, of course, are the less objective reasons: it involves a close friend.

Thanks to everyone who has responded thus far. I appreciate it.
