An account of a wrongful conviction where the speaker and two others were arrested and imprisoned due to a fabricated narrative by the police, despite lack of physical evidence and solid alibis. The chapter explores the manipulation, pressure, and false confession faced by the speaker during intense police interrogation, leading to absurd accusations and unfair treatment in a case riddled with misconceptions and lack of logic. The media's sensationalized coverage portraying the speaker negatively and the struggle to counter the prosecution's narrative in court are also discussed.
