Oct 15 Book Review: Framed: Astonishing True Stories of Wrongful Convictions by John Grisham, Jim McCloskey

   





 
Framed: Astonishing True Stories of Wrongful Convictions by John Grisham, Jim McCloskey
Two authors with their own true life stories of how something could go so wrong that their clients end up in prison.
What I really is the organization behind it all, the lawyers, ministry and so many more.
Like that the story starts when everything was fine with the clients world then one day something goes wrong and before they know it they are the ones being accused of a murder.
Goes through the whole court scenes, evidence collected and the solutions that they come to.
Sometimes the cops persuade the clients that the death was their fault, sometimes the judge is corrupt, sometimes it's somebody else totally.
After imprisonment then he team really start working. They talk to those who were eye witnesses and how they really didn't see a thing and before you know it the client is freed.  Some take years to gather the information.
Sometimes it's not so easy, sometimes it's too late because the court has the death penalty in place but the outcome was changed
even after their death.
Love the team and hope they find the time to help more that have been imprisoned wrongly and are released and given the money they are deserving of to exist on the outside.
So many intricate details the lawyers point out them all. So many emotions while reading this. Kept me up a few nights and I was so sad I cried at some of the outcomes.
Received this review copy from Doubleday Books Doubleday via NetGalley and this is my honest opinion.
