Inocentes : increíbles casos de true crime y condenas injustas
(Book)

"El autor John Grisham y el fundador de Centurion Ministries, Jim McCloskey, comparten diez desgarradoras historias reales de condenas injustas. Impecablemente investigado y narrado de forma cautivadora, Framed ofrece una mirada al interior de las víctimas del sistema de justicia penal de los Estados Unidos. Un principio fundamental de nuestro sistema legal es la presunción de inocencia, pero una vez que alguien ha sido declarado culpable hay muy poco margen para dudar. Framed comparte diez historias reales de hombres que eran inocentes pero fueron declarados culpables y obligados a sacrificar amigos, familias, esposas y décadas de sus vidas en prisión mientras los culpables permanecieron libres. En cada una de las historias, John Grisham y Jim McCloskey relatan las dramáticas y reñidas batallas por la exoneración. Analizan de cerca lo que conduce a las condenas injustas en primer lugar, y el racismo, la mala conducta, los testimonios defectuosos y el sistema judicial corrupto que pueden hacer que sean tan difíciles de revertir." -- Publisher.

"In his first work of nonfiction since The Innocent Man, #1 bestselling author John Grisham and Centurion Ministries Founder Jim McCloskey share ten harrowing true stories of wrongful convictions. Impeccably researched and grippingly told, Framed offers an inside look at the victims of the United States criminal justice system. A fundamental principle of our legal system is a presumption of innocence, but once someone has been found guilty there is very little room to prove doubt. Framed shares ten true stories of men who were innocent but found guilty and forced to sacrifice friends, families, wives, and decades of their lives to prison while the guilty parties remained free. In each of the stories, John Grisham and Jim McCloskey recount the dramatic hard-fought battles for exoneration. They take a close look at what leads to wrongful convictions in the first place, and the racism, misconduct, flawed testimony, and the corrupt court system that can make them so hard to reverse. Told with page-turning suspense as only John Grisham can deliver, Framed is the story of overcoming adversity when the battle already seems lost, and the deck is stacked against you." -- Provided by publisher.
