Movie Review: Brother's Keeper


This documentary tells the story of Delbert Ward and how he was put on trial for the death of his brother. These simple farmer folk didn't understand all the attention. Locals tended to ignore them until Delbert was accused, then people who would not give them the time of day, raised funds to defend the accused murderer.

It's unclear why the authorities were so determined to go after this guy. They could be my neighbors. If I ever have the unfortunate situation to be accused of a crime, I hope I am swift enough to say "lawyer NOW."

Bandon has the DVD.
