A Complete Waste of Time,
This review is from: ABC News 20/20 The Matthew Shepard Case (DVD)
If you want to see Matthew Shepard's murderers make things up as they go along to a completely shameless Elizabeth Vargas, then watch this episode of 20/20. If, on the other hand, you have a brain and don't appreciate the drudging up of an awful crime for ratings--with no really new information--then ignore this tripe.

Absolute trash. ABC should be ashamed.,
By Bob Rousseau (Seattle, WA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: ABC News 20/20 The Matthew Shepard Case (DVD)
This outrageous piece of garbage is only worth your time if you want to see an example of the worst kind of gutter journalism. It's full of insinuations about Matthew Shepard and it includes interviews with his murderers (I am told that a condition of them getting life sentences instead of the death penalty was that they never give interviews, but why should ABC care when there's a buck to be made, and the murderers figured somewhere down the road, they might get some leniency). Vargas even feeds lines to Aaron McKinney ("So you were just out of your mind on drugs when you did this, right?" "Yeah!"). There are inconsistencies even in the interviews ABC included in the show, but they didn't bother to point them out. It's same point of view used by those who try to get leniency for abusers in domestic violence matters by reframing events and asking "What did the victim do to make the abuser so mad?"
Matthew Shepard wasn't "Matthew from Nazareth"-and no one(even his parents) tried to fit him for sainthood. But to throw mud at his reputation by asking people who only stood to gain from him not being able to respond is utterly reprehensible. I only gave it one star because the system wouldn't allow me to leave no stars, or what would have been more appropriate- negative stars.

Video poison,

This review is from: ABC News 20/20 The Matthew Shepard Case (DVD)
This DVD should be clearly labeled as the poisonous collection of falsehoods and distortions that it has been conclusively proven to be. The claims about drugs are specious and the whole effort to create a negative image of Shepard is really vicious and disgraceful,adding further insult to his mortal injuries. The producers of this supposed news magazine should be barred from ever presenting their work as journalism--it is fraud and lies.
