Literally reading about how horrible and unjust our system in criminal system is is just absolutely so disheartening. A small part of me do needs to realize of this all happened back in the early '90s where our judicial system was a little bit different, but at the same time even looking at our future system currently. What happened back then and reading all the stories about some of these cases that were brought up? It makes me question and wonder that like if it was happening right now with the same s*** still be going on. And the worst part about thinking that is that the answer is yes, a lot of the cases that was brought up in this book unfortunately enough. A lot of the times this incentive s*** is still to the state is happening and let's see yours and years later. Either like this book was very eye-opening and very inspirational and very emotional at times as well. Absolutely love this book
