TV documentary: Who killed Vincent Chin (1987)?

Hiya all,

watching a Twilight Zone episode called "Wong Lost & Found" which i enjoyed very much,i came across a crime story about what happened to Vincent Chin.Because i don't live in the US i am interested into this story and would like to see this documentary called "Who killed Vincent Chin?" which was shown on US TV in ancient times.Does anyone know if it got released on DVD or VHS tape?Every help is much appreciated -thankyou-.

kind regards
Sylvester

I'd like to see this too, although the title of the documentary is a bit misleading as it was quite obvious who did kill Vincent Chin, and that the two individuals who did so were only set free because of an extremely racist environment and legal system at the time (euphamism: "legal technicality").

Yeah right,the documentary titles question is not the right introduction into this thematic.So was this documentary shown on tv or only on the film festivals?I read that it was shown in several school classes so it should be availible somehow.

Although I'm fairly certain you don't want to pay $395 for it.
