Great read, great Author.

It is amazing that no one even realized that all those innocent men were wrongly convicted for crimes that involves the murderer of women. I think this should be studied.

The real tragedy is all those who did suspect/know and said nothing.

this Manis good but very corky

I am from Ada, Ok. knew/know most of the people in the book. Including Ron, Barney, Bill, Joe, Glen, Debbie. Tragic at every level.

[@Crimetvuk]

You had something else really bad happen there in recent years? I remember watching a documentary and it was in Ada.

[@semprequeleroscomentariose8916]

uau, how old are you? Can you tell more about these people?

[@WopTopDrop]

This was an amazingly tragic experience/story....I had such an array of emotions reading this.....disbelief that these things can happen to another human.

I read this book years ago, it was so tragic. So glad to find this lecture!

..such exposure in John Grisham’s, AN INNOCENT MAN. That cop shop in Oklahoma was sinister; their snitches, their administrative politics. Grisham can make it rain, Grisham is a RAINMAKER. We need John Grisham.

Great book, audio book and Netflix series.

Bless John Grisham, and his writing style in the form of entertainment that opens minds which might otherwise remain closed. There is Ron Williamson, a dramatic story... and then there are the dozens if not hundreds of men, black and brown innocents on Death Row.

A great book

I also have The Chamber, another one of John Grisham's books!

[@lindamoore8748]

I love this book- I have read it a number of times!

Incredible story. Found this after learning more about Sandusky trial, which also seems to be a huge miscarriage of justice. Check out the With the Benefit of Hindsight podcast if you want to learn more.

it does matter if you win or lose doesnt matter how you play the game is the morality of these cops
