5.0 out of 5 stars
A must read for anyone concerned about justice!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Innocent: Inside Wrongful Conviction Cases (Hardcover)
I've never read anything quite like this book. The author, who displays an unusual depth and breadth of knowledge about the system, has selected twelve cases of "actual innocence": people who have,through "bad" eyewitness accounts, heresay evidence and/or outright corruption been unjustly convicted and jailed for many years. The stories are HEARTBREAKING and told with great clarity. Fortunately many of these people (several of which have already been exonerated - though not compensated!!) have legal teams and other committed professionals (such as the author) who labor on their behalf pro bono. It seems that the only way our justice system can be reformed is through media exposure, and this book is an eloquent example. Today New York, tomorrow, Texas . . . .
