This series offers nothing other than a new paycheck for doormen, taxi drivers, ER nurses Kiefer Sutherland, and whoever else they could pluck out of obscurity to participate. It offers zero new information. It wastes a great deal of time on baseless conspiracy theories. Worst of all, it seems to suggest that Mark David Chapman was unfairly treated. His defense might have pulled off an insanity defense, however unlikely due to the fact that it was premeditated and that he definitely understood that what he was doing was wrong, but those points are moot. He pleaded guilty. It goes on to suggest that because John Hinckley Jr. Was deemed insane and is now released, that it is somehow unfair that Mark David Chapman is still in jail. John Hinckley Jr. Did not kill Ronald Reagan, was found insane, and he received treatment before he was released. Beyond that I think John Hinckley Jr. Should not have been released and Marc David Chapman has been up for parol several times which have been denied and he has received no treatment, to the contrary, he has spent his jail time in solitary which does not a sane man make. What is unfair is that John Lennon was murdered, which is a tragedy for the world, and Mark David Chapman has not been murdered, which would be a tragedy to no one. The documentary also suggests that him being in solitary to protect him from being killed by any other inmates is somehow unjust. That is simply the consequence of killing John Lennon. Had he killed someone as inconsequential as himself, he would be in general population. Some charlatan pastor they interviewed said if he killed anyone else he would not still be in prison, stating "he killed the wrong person". Who is the right person to kill man of God?
