Detective Apolito must be punished for a lifetime. He robbed 19 years of Mr. Barry Gibbs' life not to mention the emotional damages he brought in
Mister Barry Gibbs' life.
Thank you Miss Vanessa Potkin for all your efforts proving the innocence of Mr. Barry Gibbs & other cases you've participated.
I do wish Michael Moore will make a moving documentary on these cases.
Cheers.
Hamid.
