A Time Killer - Nothing More

For his first work of fiction, Scott Turow opted for that creature of an infinite number of crime noir books - the innocent man falsely accused. But PRESUMED INNOCENT is not noir, falling instead into the more generic genre of standard mystery. Rusty Sabich, a prosecutor in a fictional...

Great Book - Thoroughly Enjoyed It

an inspiring look at a continuing problem

What is worse than being convicted of a crime you didn't commit? Yet, it happens all to frequently, sometimes because the prosecutor knowingly hid evidence that would have led to a not guilty verdict.There is significant documentation of such improper convictions, in a series by the Chicago...
