About
"Rob Warden, one of the country's most eloquent and effective advocates for the wrongly convicted, presents this classic work with accounts of a number of other real-life "dead alive" cases known to have occurred in the United States. A tale of false confessions and jailhouse snitches, of evidence overlooked and justice more blinkered than blind, the story of the Boorn brothers is a troubling reminder of the perennial nature of the flaws at the heart of American jurisprudence - and of the need to question and correct a system that continues to condemn the innocent."--BOOK JACKET.
