‎The Innocent Man: Murder and Injustice in a Small Town‎

‎New York: Doubleday. Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 2006. Hardcover. Small ding at bottom of front cover. Very light rubbing to back cover of dust jacket . 368 pages. John Grisham's first work of nonfiction an exploration of small town justice gone terribly awry is his most extraordinary legal thriller yet. In the major league draft of 1971 the first player chosen from the State of Oklahoma was Ron Williamson. When he signed with the Oakland A's he said goodbye to his hometown of Ada and left to pursue his dreams of big league glory. Six years later he was back his dreams broken by a bad arm and bad habits - drinking drugs and women. He began to show signs of mental illness. Unable to keep a job he moved in with his mother and slept twenty hours a day on her sofa. In 1982 a 21-year-old cocktail waitress in Ada named Debra Sue Carter was raped and murdered and for five years the police could not solve the crime. For reasons that were never clear they suspected Ron Williamson and his friend Dennis Fritz. The two were finally arrested in 1987 and charged with capital murder. With no physical evidence the prosecution's case was built on junk science and the testimony of jailhouse snitches and convicts. Dennis Fritz was found guilty and given a life sentence. Ron Williamson was sent to death row. If you believe that in America you are innocent until proven guilty this book will shock you. If you believe in the death penalty this book will disturb you. If you believe the criminal justice system is fair this book will infuriate you. . Doubleday hardcover‎

When the first firefighters arrived on the scene the building - a hulking abandoned windowless warehouse - was waiting to explode. As men fought to contain the flames with hoses they were suddenly surrounded by confusing suffocating darkness and searing steam. Worcester Cold Storage - with its maze like layout and rooms so insulated that they prevented men from hearing each others alarm - was turning into a furious beast." Six firefighters died. Bumped head and heal of spine; jacket has light wear and a piece of cello tape not covering a repair is stuck to back of jacket.
