David Milgaard: The Story Behind Canada's Most Controversial Wrongful Conviction: Was His Wrongful Conviction a Failure of Justice — Or a Cover-up?
Originally published as The Story David Milgaard Wanted Told, this new edition adds a comprehensive Index, a new title, and a new book cover. David Milgaard himself rejected the inquiry’s findings, insisting the truth had been ignored. This book examines the discrepancies he wanted the world to see. How could so much evidence lead to so little accountability?
With testimony at the public inquiry into David Milgaard’s wrongful conviction spread across two years, key revelations got buried in yesterday’s newspapers and critical connections were missed.
Now, for the first time, this book assembles the hundreds of thousands of pages of evidence from the public inquiry evidence and Supreme Court of Canada review into a single shocking, readable account. This is the first book to assemble all the inquiry’s findings into one damning narrative and connects the dots. It’s the complete story the Internet age never got to dissect.
It’s not new information – it’s the full truth finally visible in one place, showing exactly how and why the system failed.
The public inquiry called it ‘case closed.’ But with missing police files, an ignored suspect, and zero consequences, was it really?
