In 2004, Matthew Shepard's killing changed the dialogue on gay life. His murder has been widely described as a hate crime, and gay activists cite it when demanding hate crime legislation. Shepard, a gay college student was severely beaten and tied to a fence by two men on the outskirts of Laramie, Wyoming. Shepard died a few days later. He became a symbol for the gay community when the murder was deemed as an anti-gay hate crime. But was the murder of Matthew Shepard a "gay bashing," or were there other factors in play that night? Exclusive prison interviews with convicted killers Aaron McKinney and Russell Henderson on the events leading up to that fateful night.


Customer Reviews:
 
Video poison
Customer Rating: 1 out of 5 
This DVD should be clearly labeled as the poisonous collection of falsehoods and distortions that it has been conclusively proven to be. The claims about drugs are specious and the whole effort to create a negative image of Shepard is really vicious and disgraceful,adding further insult to his mortal injuries. The producers of this supposed news magazine should be barred from ever presenting their work as journalism--it is fraud and lies.

Love Matthew,Hate The Show!
Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 
Okay I Didnt See The Show But The Only Reason Is Cause Judy Matthews Mother Had Said AFTER She Saw The Show They Took All The Things She HAd Said Out Of Conteches So It Looked Like She Had Been Agreeing With Everything The Interviewer And Aaron & Russell Were Saying WHICH WAS NOT TRUE!!!

A Complete Waste of Time
Customer Rating: 1 out of 5 
If you want to see Matthew Shepard's murderers make things up as they go along to a completely shameless Elizabeth Vargas, then watch this episode of 20/20. If, on the other hand, you have a brain and don't appreciate the drudging up of an awful crime for ratings--with no really new information--then ignore this tripe.
