"Wrongfully Accused, Rightfully Acquitted" is the second novel of Richard A. Taylor. This book stems from an incident that occurred while promoting his first book, "Brushes with Death: The Blood of Jesus." See, Richard was living a dream. Having escaped two decades of living a criminal lifestyle and surviving a violent attempt on his life, Richard was enjoying his rebirth as a student, father, and a published author. All of his hard work had finally paid off. Enter Chloe, a friend of a friend from the past. When the two developed a quasi-relationship after meeting at Richard's book signing, things soon grew dramatic. A hot and steamy love affair soon turned into a destructive foray of jealousy, deceit, and hate. When the smoke cleared, Chloe emerged broken and vengeful; while Richard wound up confined to Norfolk's city jail, accused of the most disgraceful crime known to man. With his hopes and dreams hanging in the balance, Taylor turns to the only savior he knew...God. Experience the fears, faith emotions and actions of Taylor, as he navigates through the tombs of the treacherous jail cells and labyrinths of the judicial and legal system. One wrong decision led Taylor to the possibility of life imprisonment. Now it was up to him to prove his innocence.

Recalling the great muckrakers of the past, an outraged team of America’s best-selling writers unite to confront the disasters of wrongful convictions. Wrongful convictions, long regarded as statistical anomalies in an otherwise sound justice system, now appear with frightening regularity. But few people understand just how or why they happen and, more important, the immeasurable consequences that often haunt the lucky few who are acquitted, years after they are proven innocent. Now, in this groundbreaking anthology, fourteen exonerated inmates narrate their stories to a roster of high-profile mystery and thriller writers—including Lee Child, Sara Paretsky, Laurie R. King, Jan Burke and S. J. Rozan—while another exoneree’s case is explored in a previously unpublished essay by legendary playwright Arthur Miller. An astonishing and unique collaboration, these testimonies bear witness to the incredible stories of innocent men and women who were convicted of serious crimes and cast into the maw of a vast and deeply flawed American criminal justice system before eventually, and miraculously, being exonerated. Introduced by best-selling authors Scott Turow and Barry Scheck, these master storytellers capture the tragedy of wrongful convictions as never before and challenge readers to confront the limitations and harsh realities of the American criminal justice system. Lee Child tells of Kirk Bloodsworth, who obsessively read about the burgeoning field of DNA testing, cautiously hoping that it held the key to his acquittal—until he eventually became the first person to be exonerated from death row based on DNA evidence. Judge John Sheldon and author Gayle Lynds team up to share Audrey Edmunds’s experience raising her children long distance from her prison cell. And exoneree Gloria Killian recounts to S. J. Rozan her journey from that fateful "knock on the door" and the initial shock of accusation to the scars she carries today. Together, the powerful stories collected within the Anatomy of Innocence detail every aspect of the experience of wrongful conviction, as well as the remarkable depths of endurance sustained by each exoneree who never lost hope.

HARD JUSTICE: Alcatraz, Conviction and Innocent: Wrongfully Accused on Death Row - 3 Books in 1 Featuring... *Alcatraz *Conviction *Innocent 3 Great Books in 1! Alcatraz Despite their place in popular culture, jail breaks are an incredibly daring prospect for any criminal to undertake. In most countries, escaping from jail is a very serious offence and will certainly result in a harsher punishment once the subject has been re-captured. Depending on the severity of the crime for which the offender was originally imprisoned, an attempted jail break can result in a significantly longer sentence. The cases covered in this volume are a combination of those prisoners who went to extreme lengths in order to free themselves from the confines of jail, those who broke free as a declaration of their innocence, and those who simply pounded at the first opportunity to escape. The fascination of each case cannot be over-stated, as well as the unimaginable bravery and audacity each one required. Conviction In 2016 alone, a grand total of 166 wrongly convicted people were declared innocent throughout the year. The most recent imprisonment of these people was made in 2010, and the farthest back was 1964. Including the 166 overturned convictions from 2016, a total of 2,000 wrongly convicted inmates have been awarded freedom since 1989 (the first year which records began). To the general public, it may seem like overturned convictions are few and far between, however, given the statistics, this isn't the case at all. It begs the question as to why most people will recognise the names of Amanda Knox, Meredith Kercher, Casey Anthony and the West Memphis Three, but may not be familiar with Kirk Bloodsworth, Thomas Kennedy or James Richardson. This book charts the true stories of a collection of the most notable wron Innocent Statistics show that no less than 4 percent of those that are on death row today are innocent. In the first study of its kind, a team concluded that our of the 8000 men and women who have been sentenced to death row since the 1970s, at least 200 of those were innocent. The numbers, of course, are very conservative. However, the number shows that it is possible that there have been more than 200 people put to death for crimes that they have never committed and the real criminal went unpunished. This is a very disturbing statistic because it proves that despite our best efforts to prove that justice is served, a large number of innocent people have been put to death. Sadly, this study does not solve the largest issue when it comes to the death penalty and that is exactly how many innocent people have been convicted of crimes and put to death for them. If you take the time to really look at the numbers you will get an idea of just how many errors are being made. It is hard for any of us to believe that an innocent person has been executed, however, this study proves that it does happen. Of course, we have all heard the stories of those that were executed and then found to later be innocent, however, it is usually by chance that it is found that these people are innocent. You see, there is no way for us to know how many of the over 1400 people who have been executed since 1976 were innocent. Once the defendant is dead, no one works to find evidence to exonerate the dead. This is the shocking true story of 12 inmates, executed on death row who were thought to have been innocent. If they didn't do the crime, what does that say about justice?

A top legal scholar explains Canada’s national tragedy of wrongful convictions, how anyone could be caught up in them, and what we can do to safeguard justice. Canada’s legal system has a serious problem: a significant but unknown number of people have been convicted for crimes they didn’t commit. There are famous cases of wrongful convictions, such as David Milgaard and Donald Marshall Jr., where the system convicted the wrong person for murder. But there are lesser-known cases: people who feel they have no option but to plead guilty, and people convicted of crimes that were imagined by experts or the police that never, in fact, happened. Kent Roach, cofounder of the Canadian Registry of Wrongful Convictions, award-winning author, and law professor, has dedicated his illustrious career to documenting flaws in our justice system. His work reveals that the burden of wrongful convictions falls disproportionately on the disadvantaged, including Indigenous and racialized people, those with cognitive issues, single mothers, and the poor. Wrongfully Convicted raises awareness about wrongful convictions at a time when DNA exonerations are less frequent and the memories of most famous wrongful convictions are fading. Roach makes a compelling case for change that governments have so far lacked the courage to make. They include better legislative regulation of police and forensic experts and the creation of a permanent and independent federal commission both to investigate wrongful convictions and their multiple causes. Roach’s research and vast knowledge point to systemic failings in our legal system. But he also outlines vital changes that can better prevent and correct wrongful convictions. Until we do, many of the wrongfully convicted are still waiting for the promise of justice. It is an issue that affects all Canadians.

The American judicial system is far too often a source of injustice for the innocent rather than justice for the guilty. Despite all the alleged protections built into the trial process, a person facing criminal charges is virtually presumed guilty until proven innocent - not the reverse. Presumed Guilty is about thousands of innocent Americans who each year are convicted of serious crimes they did not commit. Many are convicted of crimes that did not even occur. Journalist Martin Yant vividly and dramatically explains the process by which American justice is miscarried, providing carefully researched details about more than 100 wrongful convictions. Yant's writing reveals both passion and frustration as he explains how most mistaken convictions could easily be avoided. "No criminal justice system is infallable," he writes, "but most errors aren't the result of carefully considered decisions that happen to be wrong." He cites examples of outrageous carelessness, investigations that conform facts to predetermined theories, the use of long-discredited investigative techniques, rampant prejudice, and the desire of police and prosecutors to "win" convictions at any price - even if evidence is fabricated to do so. Yant goes on to propose achievable solutions that would not only prevent years of imprisonment for the wrongfully convicted but also save the lives of innocent individuals who face the increasingly used death penalty. Presumed Guilty reveals not only how often the American justice system goes awry, but how easily - and how quickly - it is possible to become its victim.
