People bullshit everything.

Yeah.

But like the public kind of has a sense or at least used to have a sense and hopefully will again that when somebody does an investigative story and they are able to produce the facts and figure out who's really responsible for a certain kind of corruption, that it reduces the corruption.

Just is the case.

And it's like you can't really regulate it or you can regulate it.

But if you regulate it, nobody's paying attention to it.

then the press has to identify that people are breaking the rules.

The DOJ right now is supposed to be the monitor of

making sure that government institutions and others don't defy the Constitution, right?

So in Alabama, clearly every time you see one of these events that happens in our film, those are all crimes.

Those are being committed by a state actor, by a prison guard, right?

Those are crimes being committed against our fellow citizens.

The fact that some of these people are incarcerated doesn't mean they're also supposed to be killed or

Right.

And so who really monitors that is the U.S.

Department of Justice, because at the end of the day, their job is to maintain a constitutional level of care.

And and it's not by the way, that's not that great.

Right.

It's like you have to make sure that there's no cruel and unusual punishment.

Well, clearly in Alabama there is.
