Download Outrage: Butch Karp - Marlene Ciampi Series AudioBook Free
Months after having a brutal double homicide in uptown Manhattan shocks the town, sensational newspaper headlines herald the arrest and indictment of Felix Acevedo, a shy Bronx teen who confessed to the horrific crimes. But downtown, in the region attorney's office, Butch Karp is seething. No earlier will he bask in the alleviation of successfully closing the truth on murderous imam Sharif Jabbar than he's thrust into the center of any high-profile prosecution that threatens the integrity of his office. An ambitious young associate district lawyer, seeking career advancement, cuts corners to indict Acevedo, disregarding Karp's important rule: Never demand the accused unless the evidence leads inexorably to proof beyond an acceptable uncertainty. Now, damned by the coerced confession and a frenzied media bent on lynching him, Acevedo sits in prison while a vicious killer stalks the town. Karp's partner, Marlene Ciampi, half of the "crime-fighting family" proclaimed by the media, hits the streets for signs that will save the unjustly accused defendant. What she discovers places her on the trail of the real perpetrator - a drug-addicted psychopath with an ax to grind - and a disgruntled police force detective who's willing to lie, withhold evidence, and get rid of to be tagged a hero. But it also puts her in the heart of a dangerous competition to be the previous man standing in case she's not careful, one of the other players will need the prize. Through the gruesome crime arena to a trial that will leave listeners on the edge of their car seats, Robert K. Tanenbaum's unstoppable book unfolds at breakneck speed as Karp and Ciampi deal with for justice in a dramatic and challenging circumstance that will joy listeners to the bone.
