Character mistake: The judge also told Hero that if the jury found him guilty of killing Ron, he "would be put to death." This is not necessarily true. Offenders convicted of capital crimes can be given life or other sentences. In states where juries decide the punishment, they do not have to sentence the offender to death. (00:31:39)
Character mistake: Hero asked Judge Straight what should happen to him for killing Ron. The judge replied, "Well, then you should be arrested, incarcerated, indicted, and tried." "Incarceration" is used to refer to long-term confinement of offenders who have been convicted and sentenced. Instead of incarcerated, a judge should know that if a defendant is denied bail (typical for capital crime cases), he would be DETAINED in a jail or detention center while awaiting trial. (00:31:20)
