The Innocent Man: Murder and Injustice in a Small Town[无辜者:谋杀与不公的小镇]

In the town of Ada, Oklahoma, Ron Williamson was once a promising baseball player, but his dreams were crushed by drugs, alcohol, and women. Then, a young cocktail waitress named Debra Sue Carter was found murdered, and Ron was charged with the crime. Despite lacking any strong evidence, Ron was found guilty and sentenced to death. John Grisham's first work of nonfiction, The Innocent Man, explores how a flawed justice system can convict innocent people, and how the real killer was allowed to walk free. Grisham's keen sense of right and wrong, eye for injustice, and legal expertise, make this a gripping and thought-provoking read. Readers who are interested in true crime or the justice system should not miss this book.
