WRONGFULLY CONVICTED-- ON JUNK SCIENCE
In 1996, three people died in an apartment fire in New Castle, Delaware. The apartment complex had been plagued with grease fires arising from delinquent stove maintenance. In an effort to to seize the media spotlight in an act of naked self gratification, and to shield insurance companies from millions of dollars in pay-outs, ambitious police and overzealous prosecutors framed Mark Kirk using junk science. Kirk was found guilty of setting a fire using Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum--a nonburnable, non-ignitable substance.
NEWS: Reknown Forensic Fire Investigator John Lentini has performed tests showing the impossibility of using Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum to start a fire.
