Johnny is going on the program to defend three convicted killers:

How intriguing. Though he's hardly the first celebrity to put their weight behind someone they believe didn't get a fair trial. Should prove interesting to see both sides because that program normally presents one side...

Thanks for the heads-up, jimbo.

Maybe it's practice for his re-staging of the Barnabas Collins: Attorney at Law segment from 1840???

Correction: Although the article said it is scheduled for this Sunday, most other articles indicate that it will air this Saturday instead.

Gothick that was great.

I finally just got the chance to watch the show. Obviously we're not going to discuss the actual case because it's way OT for the forum, but Depp's stance and the new forensic evidence are compelling. It's also interesting how many people now believe the three men were wrongly convicted, including, to varying degrees, the family members of two of the victims.

Any way one looks at it, the case is very sad...
