“I won’t plead guilty-because I didn’t do the killing” – this is what Beata Pasik repeats for more than 20 years.
Accused and convicted of murder and attempted murder, Beata Pasik finally left prison after 18 years, even though she was supposed to serve 25 years. This is a unique situation. The convict never admitted her guilt, and yet she was released on parole. Did the court have second thoughts and realized that an innocent woman could have been in prison for 18 years? What does Beata Pasik say about her 18 years in prison?
