"Well as to your last point the movie specifically mentions that juvenile records are destroyed after 7 years so there was nothing to research."
Yeah, because we know that in movies nothing is ever made up.
It is ALL fact and there is never any fiction at all in any movie ever.
Dumbass.
You really believe that?
No, you asshole.
Criminal records never go away, stupid.

Ferguson only started remembering John and Tommy when he was cornered and forced to think back on the abuses. I'm sure he doesn't even remember Michael was one of them. Him, Nokes, and the other guards abused so many kids over the years that they were nothing but toys for them to play with. They wouldn't remember any names.

I don't think it's a leap at all to think two of the kids would grow up to be criminals. Happens all the time to those who do time. Also don't think it's a stretch they would run into him in a bar/restaurant. Also, it is said Michael lobbied to be prosecutor on the case, so that part is explained.
I do have a hard time, though, believing that the guard who confessed on the stand would voluntarily appear as a character witness at a trial without recognizing the names of the defendants and the prosecutor as those he had abused just 13 years earlier. -

I can't imagine those guards would ever recognize a name or a face of those kids. There were too many over the years. It would be plausible if they only abused those four. Then they MIGHT remember their names. Maybe. But I'm thinking the guards in this situation plowed many many fields.

The assisstant DA wasn't randomly assigned to the case. He arranged to take it as part of his overall plan to expose the guards. There was a small story arc about his life being on the line because he aimed to prosecute his friends.

Just way too many coincidences and other things that fall perfectly into place to help these guys get away with vengeful murder.
Like another guard becomes a corrupt cop and one of the abused kids grows up to be an investigative reporter who digs up dirt on him.
And another ex-guard has a mob debt that another mob gets to take over so they can murder him.
It's all in fantasy land and guys who do such horrible things to kids get away with it all the time.
We only hear of the ones who are caught.
And for somehow all of the ex-guards to get caught? Nuh-uh. Very, very Doubtful.
Which leads me to think this is more of a work of fiction and none of it happened.
Humans are not the only species on earth.
We just act like it.
