John Grisham’s first work of nonfiction, an exploration of small town justice gone terribly awry, is his most extraordinary legal thriller yet.
In the major league draft of 1971, the first player chosen from the State of Oklahoma was Ron Williamson. When he signed with the Oakland A’s, he said goodbye to his hometown of Ada and left to pursue his dreams of big league glory.
Six years later he was back, his dreams broken by a bad arm and bad habits—drinking, drugs, and women. He began to show signs of mental illness. Unable to keep a job, he moved in with his mother and slept twenty hours a day on her sofa.
In 1982, a 21-year-old cocktail waitress in Ada named Debra Sue Carter was raped and murdered, and for five years the police could not solve the crime. For reasons that were never clear, they suspected Ron Williamson and his friend Dennis Fritz. The two were finally arrested in 1987 and charged with capital murder.
With no physical evidence, the prosecution’s case was built on junk science and the testimony of jailhouse snitches and convicts. Dennis Fritz was found guilty and given a life sentence. Ron Williamson was sent to death row.
If you believe that in America you are innocent until proven guilty, this book will shock you. If you believe in the death penalty, this book will disturb you. If you believe the criminal justice system is fair, this book will infuriate you.</p>

其實中間是跳著看的,因為作僞證那段實在看著太惡心。最後看著一張張圖,看著主人公的照片,忍不住哭瞭。冤假錯案實錄。
評分又是一個Wrongful Conviction Case,與我上學期寫作課是一個主題,而且還和innocence project.org有關。
評分Ronnie
評分花瞭三天時間,一口氣讀完!小人物的悲慘遭遇讓人唏噓不已.冤假錯案貽害的不僅是個人,是整個傢庭,好好的一個傢,因為司法係統的不負責,支離破碎,有些遺憾永生永世都無法彌補,看著本書末尾那些照片,我竭力想象ron在審判過程中,以及在死刑犯監獄經曆的一切,心痛不已!糾正冤假錯案需要專業技術,更需要良知和勇氣啊!
評分這是除瞭Cold Blood之外我看的第二本non fiction. 同樣也是在寫murderer,但是這次的主角Ron讓我覺得更加miserable,實在是因為長達十幾年的牢獄之災隻是當地檢察官的誤判。 情節跌宕起伏,扣人心弦。生活果然比戲劇更加戲劇化
看完了The Innocent Man。总的一句来说就是好看。虽然故事的发展在前半部有时候有点沉闷,因为要交待每一个人的过去,但是越是到后面越是紧张。 Ron被判死刑了,他会不会死?他还是无辜的吗?每一份每一秒都是在想着这些内容,然后追着看下去。 结局了,很感动,看得我想哭了...
評分美国小说家约翰·格里森姆以司法题材见长,紧张的情节、出人意料的结局,每每被改编成热播电视剧。新作《无辜的人:一个美国小镇上的谋杀与冤案》同样引人入胜,更教人唏嘘的是,这是一部非虚构的作品。 本书主线是一桩比小说更荒诞的案件。上世纪80年代的美国小镇,一位少女被...
