For Justice's Sake - John C Moore's Fight for Exoneration

Wed 13 Jan 2010

Please watch the following min-documentary on John C Moore, an Ojibwe man who was falsely convicted of murder. The description of the documentary is as follows:

The first of two parts to a Trailer/ Mini Doc about Ojibwe man, John Caleb Moore's fight for exoneration.

John Moore was convicted of second degree murder for the death of Sault Ste. Marie taxi driver Donald Lanthier.

He spent 10 years in prison, though it is acknolwedged that he was not present at the scene of the murder and two other men were charged with second and first degree counts of murder for stabbing and strangling Lanthier. John and his supporters believe John's story is one of terrible injustice and example of a long standing systemic issue - institutional racism towards aboriginal people in Canada.

This film was produced, written, edited and filmed by Samantha Pollock. A full length film is in the works.

Thandi Fletcher and Brier Dodge were present during the production of this film, and aided in some of the filming.

Please contact Samantha with any information, interest, or insight into the issues raised in this film, or if you are interested in taking part in the full length production. spolloc2@connect.carleton.ca
