Doubtful

The five W's
The when, what, where, why, and who.
When did it happen?
What happened?
Where did it happen?
Why did it happen?
Who did it happen to?
The questions we must ask to find out the truth.
To find out what really went on.
Long hours spent working on a cold case,
Turn into minutes, hours, and days.
Look at that suspect straight in the face,
you can tell he's lying, so you put him in handcuffs.
Don't give him a chance to speak,
tell his side of the story,
Then you shine in glory, saved the day
Or what you thought to be.
Years later, you find the actual man.
A poor innocent man behind bars
And it's all your fault.
