Illustrates how the power of narrative influences how police, prosecutors, juries, and judges construct legal reality Wrongful convictions have been studied primarily through the lenses of law, psychology, and the social sciences. Though scholarship has established canonical factors that help explain why the innocent are convicted, a very simple question has not been answered: How is it possible that prosecutors can convince juries and themselves of the guilt of an innocent defendant, often even against strong exculpatory evidence? Narratives of Guilt and Innocence seeks to address this crucial question by highlighting the narrative blueprint of a given criminal justice system and then how the power of narrative influences how police, prosecutors, juries, and judges construct legal reality and the evidence for it. That law and storytelling are connected is a common trope, but we know surprisingly little about the intricate role storytelling plays in criminal cases and wrongful convictions in particular. This book questions the effectiveness of the adversarial contest between prosecutor and defense as a means to arrive at the truth and argues that narrative is an important a factor in the construction of legal reality. Wrongful convictions exemplify that narrative and truth have an uncomfortable relationship. Ralph Grunewald provides a retelling and reading of well-known miscarriages of justice, including the best-known wrongful conviction in Germany. Applying a comparative perspective shows that the narrative desire as a human trait has a universal power with a persistence that transcends the regulatory and procedural setup of a given system. Narratives of Guilt and Innocence puts wrongful convictions into an interdisciplinary and comparative context and vividly demonstrates just how much the process of storytelling affects legal reality.

From the trials of Oscar Pistorius to O.J. Simpson and Michael Jackson, this innovative book provides a critical review of 11 high profile criminal cases.

'Devastating and fascinating' New York Times 'Ice-cool, effortlessly classy prose' Observer A group of respectable family men are charged with the brutal murder of a teenager. A promising student gets caught up in a sadistic schoolboy gang. A couple are bound together by the events of one bloody night. Where do you draw the line between good and evil? In Guilt, people commit violent, extraordinary acts; some are convicted in a court of law, others are not. But our narrator, a nameless lawyer, knows that this is never the whole story. Drawn from Ferdinand von Schirach's eminent career as a criminal defence lawyer, the stories in Guilt blur fiction and truth, compelling us to question the difference between guilt and justice, innocence and complicity.

Since the dawn of man, stories of guilt have formed the fabric of our history. From wars and conflicts to crime and punishment, guilt has driven our actions. We want to see guilt punished, but fear we may need to be punished as well. Everyone living in this world experiences guilt, whether at a deeply personal level or perceived in others. Guilt feels heavy and dark, like a great weight holding us down, and we look for ways to keep it hidden. Ultimately, hidden or not, the guilt remains and impacts our relationships and the decisions we make in life.This new book by the author of 'It's All Mind' explores a new way of looking at guilt, the way of 'A Course in Miracles'. Here guilt is examined from the idea of separation and the ego that wants to maintain that separation. Once seen this way, the Course provides us with the antidote to guilt, the idea of forgiveness, a brand of forgiveness unlike any taught by religions or psychologists. When forgiveness is applied to the guilt in your life, that dark and heavy burden will be lifted, and the Love and Peace of our True Home can be revealed.More than a theoretical book, it's also a practical guide showing how you can use forgiveness every day to lift your personal burden of guilt and truly change your life. Through a simple step-by-step process, you will be able to apply the practice of forgiveness to the guilt you experience. With repeated application, a real transformation is possible, leading you out of the conflicts in your life to the end of guilt.“'The End of Guilt' is a very well-written, thorough treatment of one of the most important concepts in 'A Course in Miracles'. The end of guilt opens the doors of Heaven.” - Jon Mundy

This book interrogates the process of court reporting on rape and other sexual crime cases involving Australian footballers. At the intersection of sport, gender, media and the law, it uncovers the story behind rape myths and stereotypes in media. This book analyses newspaper reporting alongside transcripts of the trials they represent and interviews with the journalists themselves. Waterhouse-Watson’s work maps structural factors within newsrooms, and the complex relationship between the judiciary and media, that affect the practice of court reporting. This book approaches key journalism concepts like objectivity and balance critically, illustrating the layers of mediation that surround a complainant’s testimony; the way sport shapes the meaning of courtroom and media narratives in these cases; and the tension between racism and sexism when race is thematised or otherwise highlighted. Ultimately, the book proposes an ethics of court reporting that protects individual complainants, as well as advancing public understandings of the crime.

Throughout Walter Brueggemann's career, he has repeatedly found his way back to the David and royal traditions. From some of his earliest articles and essays to monographs, commentaries, and sermons, he has explored this rich field in literary, social, and theological depth. As he has said, "My preoccupation with David rests on the awareness that David occupies a central position in the imagination of ancient Israel and in the rendering of 'faith and history' by that community. As the genealogies locate David, he stands mid-point between the rigors of Mosaic faith and the destruction of Jerusalem; as a consequence he becomes, in the artistry of Israel, the carrier of all the ambivalence Israel knew about guarantees and risks in the world YHWH governs." This volume brings together some of Brueggemann's key essays on the David traditions, as well as their interrelationships with traditions in the book of Genesis. --from the Foreword
