Very sick person and it was a good read. It amazes me that even the criminal think
they should get the death penalty.

As hard as it was to read because of some of the awful details of Hatcher’s crimes, it’s always enlightening to read about events centered around my hometown. The last part of the book left me shocked and wondering what other questions might remain unanswered, but it was overall a satisfying end to a long overdue punishment for a person who clearly had nothing good to offer the world.

horrible story, but interesting...

This is a very well written book that I had a hard time putting down once I had started it. So sad that an innocent man lost so many years of his life paying for a crime he didn't commit while the con man killer played the system and continued molesting and murdering.
