guilty as charged!

I've just completed writing my newest book, Guilty As Charged”, in which I’ve learned a great deal about people who are wrongfully convicted of crimes. The book features profiles of 16 men and women who were accused of crimes they did not commit.
Now, I was aware of names like David Milgaard, Steven Truscott, Guy Paul Morin, Romeo Phillion, and many more. But the details around their wrongful convictions were not well known to me.
          Along with their astonishing stories covered in Guilty As Charged!, I present facts on why wrongful convictions occur. I’ve shown how, with their lives deteriorating, many people chose to plead guilty as their best option to fight a justice system making it difficult to even be heard. And I’ve described how a disgraced doctor‘s invalid medical claims sent several innocent citizens to prison when they should never have been there. (He was finally found out and stripped of his medical licence.)
          “You die a little bit each day that you spend in a penitentiary,” one of them said. “This can happen to you!”
          I hope “Guilty As Charged!” can help change this.
