This book is a must read for everyone!

Whether or not you believe that law enforcement can protect you at all times, this book uncovers some astonishing stories that will make you re-think how you view the safety and security of yourself and your family against the evil being's that stalk this planet.

The author does an exceptional job in providing upclose and personal profiles of all involved.

It is a well written and fast paced piece that one cannot put down. I am looking forward to the sequel.

5.0 out of 5 stars Advice for women readers., November 8, 2001

By 

Susan Bastona (Atlanta, GA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Justice Rendered 2000 (Paperback)

My husband and I purchased this book last weekend at a gunshow in Atlanta GA. We met the author and one of the female victims whose story is in the book. Her story, "Enough is Enough," brought back nightmares from our family past. Having a sister that almost died at the hands of her abusive husband, this chapter brought both joy and sadness.

Any American that has firearms in their home needs to read this book! The several stories of women who defended themselves with firearms gives even more arguments of why "ALL" free Americans should have the right to arm themselves. This book gets straight to the point. The lives of the victims are fully explained and one cannot help but become filled with joy and anger throughout each chapter. It's a roller coaster of emotions.

After the tragic events of Sept 11, 2001, all of us are looking for a little "JUSTICE RENDERED" in our lives. This book delivers!

This review is from: Justice Rendered 2000 (Paperback)

What Happens When the Intended Victim of a Violent Crime Takes Justice Into Their Own Hands?

ALBANY, NEW YORK - On the phone with her daughter, Karen McCann, played by Sally Field, becomes the only witness to the brutal rape and murder of her eldest daughter is the blockbuster 1996 film "Eye for an Eye." The story of a justice system that protected the wrong person and let a killer walk free, "Eye for an Eye" brought the debate about ordinary citizens and their right to own guns. The reality is that the American justice system is a dark place to operate in, often catering to the perpetrators of violent crimes instead of the victims.

Justice Rendered 2000 (now available from 1stBooks Library) is a collection of powerful true stories that prove to the reader that bad things do happen to good people, but that does not mean we can't do something to protect ourselves. Dedicated to all people who believe in the second amendment of the U.S. Constitution, Justice Rendered puts names and faces to ordinary people who faced extraordinary circumstances and refused to let evil win.

Compiling the stories that make up Justice Rendered was no easy task. Many of the people involved in these crimes live in daily fear of retribution for simply protecting themselves. To protect them, author Scotty Phillips has changed the names of the victims, the location of the crimes, and, in some cases, some of the facts of the case in order to protect the victims from the cruelty of the "system."

Scotty Phillips was raised in the small town of Adel, Georgia, near the Florida State line. After retiring with twenty years of military service, he returned to the civilian sector and gained employment in the finance collection business. Having spent endless hours in courtrooms handling litigation in lawsuits, he quickly became disturbed in witnessing testimonies from crime victims as the told their horrifying accounts. He became even more disturbed as he questioned why many of these victim's stories were never told (or refused to be told) by the mass media. Compelled to have their stories told, he invested countless hours of research in gathering each victim's account of that tragic event that changed their lives forever.

Justice Rendered is Phillips first book and was inspired by a devastating crime involving close family friends. He says, "The events of the crime were a wake-up call of the cold, hard facts of what can happen to all of us if we must defend ourselves. When a victim wins the gun battle, the costly legal battle from civil suits may turn the tables of a short-lived victory. You'll find the law may not be on your side."
