Their lives have been ruined because of these unethical state prosecutors. They may have lost everything they had, family relationships, jobs, homes, cars, their reputations and friends, all because of lies.

The DOJ at the federal level needs to investigate every attorney working for the state of Massachusetts. If they have broken the law then they should have their day in court, and if found guilty they should never be allowed to practice law anywhere n the country. Every forensic lab involved should be shut down and every case they processed should be suspect, reviewed and verified by other labs.

The 21,000 people who were wronged by the state should be compensated.
