Innocent

The tragic story of Ron Williamson – a young man who was convicted of a murder he did not commit.

How did an innocent person end up on death row? Why was the trial conducted with gross violations? Is the notorious presumption of innocence just a myth and beautiful words? Can one outplay the indifferent machine of justice, if not all links in the chain of evidence for the defense are reliable, and the prosecution is ready for anything, even forgery, just to send the accused to death row?..

John Grisham answers these questions in his shocking book.
