I am on chapter 6-7 and this is the point in the book when the man askes for a DNA test becasue it had just been invented. The DNA test proved him to be not guilty. I am glad that the guy was able to get a DNA test, becasue if not he would of stayed in jail for almost all of his life for a crime he didnt do. They eventually did find the person who committed the crime. The guy who was falsly accused recieved over a million doallr from the courts. It is a relief that the story ended happily, and they ended up being friends, which i think is awsome.
