Outrage! This is the true story of the rape and murder of a child, told in a style which is both tender and savage, holy and evil, magnetic and repulsive. The study illumines the murder, the response of the law, and the wild life of the perpetrator. Is anyone safe?

5.0 out of 5 stars Attention penal system, social services and all parents!, April 20, 2000

This review is from: When God Cries: Portrait of a Child Slayer (Paperback)

This could happen to you! I was involved in this story from beginning to end. I am the mother of Marcy. I learned several things about the event that I never knew. Early detection of an abused child, signs to watch for, could keep other parents from enduring the nightmare that I lived. This type of crime affects many lives forever. Sherri Jilek puts the facts in order and had I not been there I would have been on the edge of my seat. A must read for anyone involved in the corrections, penal system, law, and parents. If any good can come out of this heinous crime it would be that we are prepared for the perpetrator. Next time it could be you or your loved one, God forbid!
