I don't know how many of you will remember this case, but back in 2001, Chandra Levy was murdered in a DC park, and the media crucified Gary Condit, a US congressman for the murder. Yet, the police never charged him nor arrested him for the murder. But, the entire case ruined his political career. It also came out during the investigation that he was having an affair with Levy, but these days, that's not political suicide.
Fast forward to today, and the police have charged someone else with the murder.

Just another case where the media ruins someones life and career.
