Framed: Astonishing True Stories of Wrongful Convictions

內容簡介

內容簡介 《紐約時報》暢銷書排行榜冠軍作品「法律驚悚小說大師」（美聯社）與「清白運動教父」（《德州月刊》）攜手，講述十個令人痛心的真實冤獄故事。「引人入勝……令人著迷……《Framed》的重要之處，不在於書名所暗示的震撼感，而是它揭露了太多不公正定罪背後，反覆出現、令人憤怒的因素。」——《華盛頓郵報》約翰．葛瑞森（John Grisham）以暢銷小說聞名全球，但他對司法正義的真實熱情，讓他與美國第一個專門為被錯判的人伸冤的組織——Centurion Ministries的創辦人吉姆．麥克羅斯基（Jim McCloskey）合作，攜手揭開美國刑事司法體系中存在的諸多不公。我們法律制度的根本原則是「無罪推定」，但一旦被判有罪，要翻案就變得困難重重。這十個真實故事揭示了那些原本無辜卻遭誤判的美國人，他們被迫犧牲朋友、家庭，甚至數十年人生入獄，而真正的罪犯卻仍然逍遙法外。在每個故事中，葛瑞森與麥克羅斯基描寫了為洗清冤屈所經歷的激烈抗爭，深入探討造成冤案的根源，包括種族歧視、執法不當、錯誤證詞，以及司法體系的腐敗，使得翻案幾乎難如登天。Framed經過嚴謹研究，以葛瑞森擅長的懸疑敘事筆法精彩呈現，是一部講述在似乎毫無勝算之下奮力爭取自由的真實紀實作品。 #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “The master of the legal thriller” (Associated Press) teams up with “the godfather of the innocence movement” (Texas Monthly) to share ten harrowing true stories of wrongful convictions.“Each of these stories is told with astonishing power.”—David Grann, author of Killers of the Flower Moon“Gripping . . . compelling . . . What makes [Framed] important reading isn’t the shock value advertised in the title. It’s the exposure of the infuriating, recurrent factors involved in so many unrighteous convictions.”—The Washington PostJohn Grisham is known worldwide for his bestselling novels, but it’s his real-life passion for justice that led to his work with Jim McCloskey of Centurion Ministries, the first organization dedicated to exonerating innocent people who have been wrongly convicted. Together they offer an inside look at the many injustices in our 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. These ten true stories shed light on Americans who were innocent but found guilty and forced to sacrifice friends, families, 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 corruption in the court system that can make them so hard to reverse.Impeccably researched and told with page-turning suspense as only John Grisham can deliver, Framed is the story of winning freedom when the battle already seems lost and the deck is stacked against you.Look for John Grisham’s forthcoming legal thriller, The Widow. This time, the verdict isn’t the end of the story.
