Broadwater‘s luck was that Sebold’s second part of the book “Lucky”, about the trial, which was all over the place and didn’t make any sense, caught the attention of an executive producer called Mucciante, working to adapt Lucky on film. Mucciante hired a private investigator to review the evidences, which ended with Broadwater being exonerated.
Sebold didn’t really apologise to Broadwater; she carefully put together apologies that blame the system which she was an innocent part of. While what happened to her was horrific, the fact that later she saw a black man and she was 100% convinced he raped her, with no evidence whatsoever, puts just as much guilt over her as over the system.
