《被定罪:不可思议的冤假错案真实故事》

John Grisham, Jim McCloskey | 2024 | ISBN: 0385550448 | English | 368 pages | ePUB | 18 MB

In John Grisham’s first work of nonfiction since The Innocent Man, “the master of the legal thriller” (Associated Press) teams up with Jim McCloskey, “the godfather of the innocence movement” (Texas Monthly), to share ten harrowing true stories of wrongful convictions.

“Each of these stories is told with astonishing power. They are packed with human drama, with acts of shocking villainy and breathtaking courage. But these are more than just gripping true stories—they are a clarion call for reforming the tragic flaws in our criminal justice system.”—David Grann, New York Times bestselling author of Killers of the Flower Moon

John Grisham is known worldwide for his bestselling novels, but it’s his real-life passion for justice that led to his work with Jim McCloskey of Centurion Ministries, the first organization dedicated to exonerating innocent people who have been wrongly convicted. Together they offer an inside look at the many injustices in our criminal justice system.

A fundamental principle of our legal system is a presumption of innocence, but once someone has been found guilty, there is very little room to prove doubt. These ten true stories shed light on Americans who were innocent but found guilty and forced to sacrifice friends, families, and decades of their lives to prison while the guilty parties remained free. In each of the stories, John Grisham and Jim McCloskey recount the dramatic hard-fought battles for exoneration. They take a close look at what leads to wrongful convictions in the first place and the racism, misconduct, flawed testimony, and corruption in the court system that can make them so hard to reverse.

Impeccably researched and told with page-turning suspense as only John Grisham can deliver, Framed is the story of winning freedom when the battle already seems lost and the deck is stacked against you.


在约翰·格拉斯自《无辜的男人》以来的第一部非虚构作品中,法律惊悚小说领域的“大师”(美联社)与洗冤运动的“教父”(《得克萨斯月刊》)吉姆·麦考利斯特联手分享了十篇令人不寒而栗的真实故事,讲述了错误定罪的人们。 “这些故事以惊人的力量娓娓道来。它们充满人性戏剧性的情节,充斥着骇人听闻的恶行和震撼人心的勇气。但这些不仅仅是一系列引人入胜的真实故事——它们是对我们悲剧性的刑事司法系统中的缺陷进行改革的一次呼吁。”——《纽约时报》畅销书作者戴维·格拉斯 约翰·格拉斯世界闻名于他的畅销小说,但正是他对正义的热情引领他与诚心事工中心的吉姆·麦考利斯特合作,成为第一个致力于为被错误定罪的人洗刷冤屈的组织。他们一起提供了一个对刑事司法系统中的许多不公现象进行深入了解的机会。 我们法律体系的基本原则是无罪推定,但一旦有人被判有罪,就几乎没有任何空间来证明怀疑。这十篇真实故事揭示了那些无辜却被定罪的美国人,他们在为朋友、家人以及数十年的生命做出牺牲后被迫进入监狱,而罪犯却依然逍遥法外。在每个故事中,约翰·格拉斯与吉姆·麦考利斯特重新回顾了造成错误定罪的原因,并剖析了法院系统中的种族主义、不当行为、偏颇的证词和腐败如何使其变得难以逆转。 以只有约翰·格拉斯才能做到的扣人心弦悬疑的方式呈现,这部作品讲述了在看起来已经失去希望且形势不利的情况下赢得自由的故事。
