The last scene of Episode 2 disturbed me.


Are the police officers even real? They were "positive" that he was an adult without checking his birth date. Honestly, I felt bad for the neighbor that she couldn't save Asian boy.

I remember when that was on the news. It was so, so sad and unbelievable. He was bleeding from his backside and obviously out of it. Those police officers were total idiots.

Idiots or just didn't give a shit? Because they were responding to a call in the ghetto and it was an immigrant Asian kid and some black prostitutes(the movie didn't show this accurately) that made the 911 call?

The ladies recognized Konerak from seeing him on the streets and knew that he was a child. He was 14.

Those cops should be in prison right now. They could have at the very least called an ambulance for him.

That may be very likely. At the time when it was on the news they did say the area was a known high crime area and police rarely responded to anything there. Still though, they also interviewed the ladies and they even said they told the officers Konerak "was just a little kid and that ain't right" and the police officers just dismissed them.

"Those cops should be in prison right now."

Sadly, they kept their jobs and one of them eventually retired. Just awful. They should have been fired at the VERY least. But really, they deserved some jail time for causing his death.

I also think the neighbor being "black" is another reason why the cops let him go.

They surely should have known he was a kid just by looking at him. They should have asked his name and should have asked to see mail in his name. Then of course they should have investigated. An ambulance should have been called. Total incompetence.
