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.

2019年闲书021:六、七年前,对刑事审判有些排斥的我,却读了两本由美国无辜者洗冤联盟组织为某次国际会议而专门出版的与冤狱有关的书:《冤案何以发生:导致冤假错案的八大司法迷信》和《你好,真相!》。前者,是一位前检察长对美国刑事司法制度的反思,后者则是48名无辜入狱...
評分 評分在罪案类型的美剧里,经常会看到负责任的警探对狡猾的罪犯穷追不舍,运用各种科技手段、提供确凿的证据,最终把罪犯绳之以法。正义得以伸张,当然大快人心。 像DNA鉴定这些技术,在上个世纪九十年代才逐渐被运用到实际办案过程中,技术的成熟和普及也经历了足够的时间考验。在...
評分看完了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...
