He was a person of interest
in the Gloria Nanmac case.
898

Yeah, I know.
He had a solid alibi.

Ezra was arrested
three times
900

for felony domestic assault
around the state.
901
00:36:16,086 --> 00:36:18,741
Because of Rule 40, those
arrests were never made public.

We pulled the records
from the villages.
903

had an alibi

We just talked to
his 10-year-old son,

left Clarence Redding's

Gloria went missing.

00:36:41,808 --> 00:36:44,898
all it proves is that Ezra
left a location with Gloria.

You're not gonna do

I have a signed confession
from Toby Crenshaw.
915
00:36:48,597 --> 00:36:50,773
That's a hell of a lot more
convincing than three arrests
916
00:36:50,773 --> 00:36:53,863
that resulted in not
one prosecution of Ezra Fisher.
917
00:36:53,863 --> 00:36:55,169
What if we
write an article
918
00:36:55,169 --> 00:36:57,650
about how Rule 40
protects domestic abusers?
919
00:36:57,650 --> 00:36:59,260
That's wildly inaccurate.
920
00:36:59,260 --> 00:37:02,872
Is it? Under Rule 40, if charges
against an alleged abuser
921
00:37:02,872 --> 00:37:04,134
get dropped or dismissed,
922
00:37:04,134 --> 00:37:06,398
the courts don't have
to log those arrests
923
00:37:06,398 --> 00:37:07,964
into the statewide database.
924
00:37:07,964 --> 00:37:10,663
Men accused of violent crimes
are hiding in plain sight.

Like Ezra.
926
00:37:12,012 --> 00:37:13,448
So a prosecutor in Anchorage
would have no idea
927
00:37:13,448 --> 00:37:16,843
if a suspect in Scammon Bay
or Russian Mission
928
00:37:16,843 --> 00:37:18,540
had been charged
with assault.
929
00:37:19,672 --> 00:37:22,762
Innocent
until proven guilty.
930
00:37:22,762 --> 00:37:25,504
It would be highly prejudicial
to leave an arrest
931
00:37:25,504 --> 00:37:27,897
on someone's record
if charges are dropped.
932
00:37:27,897 --> 00:37:30,683
It's also highly prejudicial
to charge the wrong man
