This review has nothing to do with the quality of the show. It is well made and an interesting story. The thing you need to realize is that it is a complete work of fiction. "Based on true events" is used more loosely than I have ever seen it in the past. After reading the official case files and the testimonies of those involved (even the accused), I think it's an understatement to say that this show take some "artistic liberties" with the source material. I caution those watching the show to take everything you see with a grain of salt. I also encourage you to research the riot on your own, so you can see what blatant propaganda this is. That being said, it is well made. It's just a shame it's all made up.
