This is obviously a case that needs to be reopened and properly investigated. Unfortunately our court system is too lazy, and it's much easier keeping these two people who I believe were coerced and pressured into a false confession in jail, than to reopen the case and get actual solid evidence. My heart breaks for these two who were not given a fair or reasonable trial.

they are innocent and just the fact that they've spent most of their lives in prison over a forced confession is so sickening it makes me want to cry. your family getting murdered is painful enough but to be falsely convicted of it is just disgusting and I am ashamed of the authorities. I hope and pray that this helps in any way possible.

I can't believe how unfair the authorities acted in front of this case. These were just kids trying to avoid being unjustly condemned for something they did not do, because it's a fact that they were all trying to blame them; the police, journalists, etc. Those who insisted on their guilt are terribly blind.

These two are innocent and it's sickening to think that they've spent their whole life in prison on a false, coerced confession.

Hi, I dont think we should live in a wprld where people at the age of 19! can get their life taken away forever just becuse the system almost forces young adults to say things, if u havent noticed kids are messed up and maybe some of us are idiotic liarsand theree is just something wrong with us but does that mean that we should go to prison for the rest of our lives?? and remember they dindt have enough evidence. just give them a new trial and give them a chance to still live whats left of their llives as people.

These two are 100 percent innocent. After reviewing the case, esp. the Netflix series, I often ask myself why are these two still in prison while it seems like nobody else on the outside (other than their friends, supporters and the family of one of the other boys, the Burns'), has ever paid any attention to their situation over these past years since they were taken into custody.
Among all the cases that involve false confessions, wrongful interrogation techniques, wrongful convictions or executions, these are among the most rare (and perhaps, ongoing), cases, which I hope, could get some more attention, because real solid evidence was ignored [the detective (or detectives), in this case, were not quite experienced in these sort of matters)], which allowed not only evidence to point back to these two men, but also their statements to be presented in court, which didn't reflect what happened that night just moments before the Rafay family were killed. Burns was only trying to impress the people he thought were underworld figures, but in fact, they were undercover cops, who kept egging him for a statement, regardless what. And both his statement, along with Atif's, is what got them arrested (and later imprisoned).
Atif Rafay and Sebastian Burns should both be entitled to both complete exoneration as well as complete relief from this case, so that the victims (the Rafay family) can rest in peace, and those who actually orchestrated the horrific crime should be bought to justice.

I truly believe they are innocent. I feel like someone needs to be making more noise on social media so that they aren't forgotten.

They are innocent and they deserve true justice. As a kid I was fearless in front of cops knowing they are here to protect the righteous but some cops make me believe otherwise nowadays.

I hope they are released, and the detectives and judges/prosecutors are held accountable for dismissing evidence and the lies they told.
