Hi Tom,

Thank you very much for your show which I watch faithfully and enjoy every time.

Regarding the discussion about the Innocence Project.

No one mentioned that the police or prosecutors or, in a few cases the defense lawyers, who did not do their job --of finding the guilty party -- should be punished. Why is everyone avoiding the punishment of the guilty? By the way, paying the innocent party $50,000 per year is not a way to stop this. Putting the guilty in prison for the same amount of time as the innocent is the way to stop this punishment of the innocent.
