20 Mistakes You Probably Missed In Ghostbusters Movies
10. The Judge Who Ignored The Law - G2
When the Ghostbusters are hauled into court for breaking the law and investigating the citys supernatural activities, they stand before Judge Wexler, who is tormented by the Scolari Brothers, who he sentenced to death for murder. The problem with that - despite its value to the plot - is that New York abolished the death penalty in 1965, when Wexler would have been in his late 20s, and thus would have been way too young to be a judge involved in such a case, if hed even started presiding by then. It takes a long time to become a judge, let alone one trusted to take on murder cases, and judging by Harris Yulins age in real life, theres no way Wexler sentenced the Scolaris to death before the abolition of the punishment.
