When Wendy Murphy was a prosecutor, she learned that the deck is stacked and only criminal defendants. Between their arrest and (potential) conviction, murderers, rapists, and drug dealers get greater than a fair shake—they get an unfair advantage, often at the expense of their victims. In many states, for instance, defendants can subpoena a victim's private medical and counseling files with no justification. They can threaten victims with brutal cross-examinations if they dare to testify. They can placed on "dog and pony show" defenses which have nothing in connection with the truth—and even lie under oath with virtually no threat of being prosecuted for perjury. These varieties of injustices make Murphy fighting mad. She's managed to get her mission to help the victims who get the least protection from our twisted legal system. And in her first book, she guides readers through one horror story after another about judges and legal representatives who bend over backward to allow worst offenders go free. You'll meet judges who unapologetically declare that they care more about their liberal ideology than about the pain and suffering of abuse victims; judges who let child molesters walk free because they're "too frail" to visit prison; defense attorneys who take a lot of money from wealthy child molesters, then twist the Bill of Rights beyond recognition; and a good few prosecutors who go easy on criminals for his or her own selfish reasons. Murphy's true stories will shock you, however they will also motivate you to join the fight for a more rational system. This is an important book that is sure to infuriate America's legal establishment.
