Two men walked down a prison corridor, when another man in plain clothes approached and walked with them. They knew he was an undercover cop, so they ignored all his provocations. At the end of the hallway they still had not given in, so the cop turned and arrested one of them. A scuffle ensued, and in the chaos one of the men began calling the cop by the accused man's name, thus incriminating him. The crowd caught on, having no way to identify the cop, and having the two men's word against one. Correctional officers arrived and arrested the cop in the other man's name, and he was sentenced to life in prison.

Five years later, "Any inconsistency in your story only serves to weaken your case and confuse the jury," said a voice that was clearly well-versed in court proceedings. The cop's cell door closed, and the speaker turned out to be the man who had originally caused the mix-up. He had become a police officer, and now was in a place of power over the unfortunate cop. Outside the cell in the hallway, he burst into tears.

Didn't anyone notice that one man was black and the other white? Should anyone who did, speak up, or risk spending their own life behind bars?
