FORMAT Paperback CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description TEN STORIES MORE SHOCKING THAN FICTION.For fans of John Grishams page-turning legal thrillers, Framed is told with all the conviction of an edge-of-your-seat courtroom drama. John Grishams first work of non-fiction since The Innocent Man, Framed uncovers stories that shine an astonishing light on miscarriages of justice. Written with Jim McCloskey, all the cases in this book are simply extraordinary. And all are true.Joe Bryan suffered the unbearable tragedy of his wifes murder, only to be tried and found guilty of the crime himself - despite being 120 miles away at the time it was committed. Clarence Brandley spent nine years on Death Row, coming to within six days of execution, before new evidence cleared him of all charges. And in the case of the Norfolk Four, police and prosecutors continued to arrest innocent people until not one but four men were behind bars. An instant New York Times bestseller, Framed is an impeccably researched and grippingly told expose of the US criminal justice system.

While a student chaplain at the Trenton State Prison he met George De Los Santos, a prisoner serving a life sentence for murder. Convinced of his innocence, McCloskey took on De Los Santoss case. His efforts led to Dos Los Santoss exoneration and release from prison in 1983. In the same year McCloskey founded Centurion Ministries, the first non-profit organisation in the world dedicated to freeing individuals who are wrongfully incarcerated. Since then Centurion has been responsible for 70 releases of men and women serving life or death sentences for crimes they did not commit.McCloskeys memoir, When Truth is All You Have, was published in 2020 with a foreword from John Grisham.He retired from Centurion in 2015. Review Each of these stories is told with astonishing power. They are packed with human drama, with acts of shocking villainy and breathtaking courage. But these are more than just gripping true stories - they are a clarion call for reforming the tragic flaws in our criminal justice system -- David Grann, New York Times bestselling author of Killers of the Flower MoonA brave book telling stories of injustice that everyone should know. Researched in detail and told with heartfelt conviction, this is an important book that should be required reading for anyone interested in the criminal justice system and the cost of its failures. -- Lisa Ballantyne, author of The Innocent OneFramed is a riveting journey into the dark corners of the US justice system. What we find there is difficult to fathom: bias, corruption, ineptitude and a shocking level of apathy in the face of life or death. Told with academic rigour but with the pace and drama of a legal thriller, it is moving, enraging, illuminating, and every bit as gripping as the best of Grishams fiction. -- Kia Abdullah, author of Truth Be ToldWhat makes this book important reading isnt the shock value advertised in the title. Its the exposure of the infuriating, recurrent factors involved in so many unrighteous convictions. * Washington Post * Details ISBN1399738607 Author Jim McCloskey Publisher Hodder & Stoughton Format Paperback Year 2024 ISBN-13 9781399738606 Imprint Hodder & Stoughton Country of Publication United Kingdom Illustrations N/A Audience General Publication Date 2024-10-15 UK Release Date 2024-10-15 Pages 368 NZ Release Date 2024-10-15 AU Release Date 2024-10-15 DEWEY 345.0122 Subtitle John Grishams Astonishing True Crime Stories of Wrongful Convictions We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
