...Apatow labors under none of those caveats. Marriage is an option, not a command, for couples living together; nearly 40% of all babies born in 2005 had unmarried mothers; more than a million legal abortions are performed each year in the U.S. So Apatow, like all modern comedy writers, has another challenge: how to create social and ethical barriers - the ones the old screenwriters relied on for their characters to hurdle - when few exist.

According to Neufeld, none of the 201 exonerations have resulted in a guilty verdict after a retrial. Bob Keller, the district attorney in the case of Calvin Johnson, who served more than 15 years in a Georgia prison for a rape he didn't commit, did not prosecute Johnson again. "I applaud the efforts...
