As well as Tufte, the video at the end of the post, where Taren Stinebrickner-Kauffman talks, is well worth listening to.
She was very aggressive on her calls to make sure the prosecuting attorneys face reproach. But interestingly, Carmen Ortiz was mostly mentioned in passing. Stephen Heymann by far was the target of Taren's anger.

If anybody does read it along with the video, please feel free to send me any corrections (or change the txt file and send me a diff). Thanks!
The petition asking for Heymann firing still lacks 15.000 votes.
From what I read he was more instrumental than Ortiz in the aggressiveness the prosecution.
Not that the witch hunt is very useful in itself, but it keeps people involved and the more shit we stir, the most likely things will move.
