Review the Frontline documentary, Death By Fire. After watching the documentary on thecase, review the state’s evidence and identify which items are related to the fireinvestigation, which are related to Willingham’s personal relationships, and which represent hearsay evidence of someone testifying about what another person has said. Then answer the following questions:Which of these do you think is the most credible in a court of law?Todd Willingham’s behavior toward his wife was described as abusive. How much does this lend credibility to the charge against him of the murder of his children?Do you believe that Willingham’s lack of injuries and police investigator Jimmie Hensley’s observation that Willingham lacked any remorse are evidence of Willingham’s guilt?How important do you think the testimony was from jailhouse informant Johnny Webb?Why do you think prosecutors believed Webb’s testimony was credible? Why might it not be?**Please keep in mind this is not an assignment as to whether or not you agree with the death penalty. This is a review of a case and basing our conclusions on the evidence that was or was not presented.Video to watch and review – https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/documentary/death-by-fire/
