Innocent Prisoners Project #5
Justice Delayed
The fifth legal thriller in the award-winning Help Innocent Prisoners Project series is Dani Trumball’s most personal case yet, as she races to stop an execution and identify the real killer.
The brutal murder of sixteen-year-old Kelly Braden sends shock waves through a community—and an intellectually disabled man to jail. The only witness to Kelly’s murder is the five-year-old cousin she was babysitting. The young girl names their neighbor, Jack Osgood, as the bat-wielding criminal. Two decades later, Osgood faces execution.
Defense Attorney Dani Trumball and her partner, investigator Tommy Noorland, are summoned to the Georgia prison where Osgood is on death row. With no friends or family of his own, there is no one left to believe Jack didn’t kill Kelly but Dani and her Help Innocent Prisoners Project. With a mentally disabled son of her own, defending Osgood could be her most heartrending case yet.
While fighting a system that blocks her attempts to overturn his conviction, Dani must race to identify the real killer before Osgood’s time runs out—and the murderer strikes again.

Defense Attorney Dani Trumball receives a plea from a prison guard in Georgia. He believes one of the death row inmates is mentally disabled and should not face the death penalty. Dani decides to take the case. A new Georgia law would not allow the execution of someone with this disability. But Jack Osgood was sentenced more than twenty years ago for the kidnapping and murder of his sixteen-year-old neighbor, Kelly Braden. As Dani fights to get the death penalty thrown out, she and her investigator, Tommy Noorland, begin to believe that Jack may be innocent of this crime.
This is the fifth book in the Innocent Prisoners Project series. Not only must Dani get a stay of execution for her client. She must get enough evidence to get Jack a new trial...enough evidence to hopefully find who really killed Kelly Braden. My rating: 4 Stars.

Dani is back to work at Help Innocent Prisoners Project and receives a plea from a prison guard, regarding his inmate Jack, who is mentally disabled and therefore shoudn't face execution. But there's no one to speak up for him and adding to this, the guard truly believes in Jacks innocence.
Dani and her team start investigating the case again and find that Jack was convicted for kidnapping and killing 16-year old Kelly solemnly because of his baseball beat being the weapon and the statement of Kelly's 5-year old cousin whom she babysat, that the man in her room might have been Jack.
So no one bothered looking for the handyman who flirted with Kelly and disappeared then or her boyfriend at the time, who lied about his whereabouts when Kelly disappeared and their relationship in general.
There's glimpses into the mind of a killer who thinks of his first victim and urges for the next, calculating circumstances to be able to blame it on someone else.
There's a father who left a little boy behind, because he can't consider a retard his son, then takes all the money Jack should have inherited and invests it in his flawless new family. - How sick is that?!
And there's a killer blaming the HIPP team for destroying his life and seeking revenge, which makes this case the most personal yet.
I love how this plays out in the end for Jack and absolutely don't feel sorry for his father. Meanwhile Dani had her own difficulties with her husband Doug wanting to move to California for a job and her not wanting to leave NYC, what makes them heading towards a long distance marriage.
Marti Green knows how to do these dark and twisty legal thrillers, showing the difficulties with the legal system and creating believable cases, characters and events. That's what makes these books page turners, along with the nature of them being rushed because of awaiting a nearing execution.
I enjoyed the whole series and if there's going to be another one, I'd love to read that. For now I'll make sure to look into more from the author.

Very emotive subjects are dealt with throughout this series by a lawyer with a conscience working to free innocent prisoners on death row. Sound boring?.....Think again. If you enjoy a legal thriller I expect you'll love this series. Characters and events are on the whole believable and the story is always fluid. Don't be surprised if you find yourself with a lump in your throat in certain parts.As with most series, book order is important but I found this book (#5) the most skilfully written . All are page turners

Justice Delayed by Marti Green begins on the night that Kelly was murdered. The chapter ends with the arrest of Osgood. Twenty years later, Dani and her team decide to review Osgood’s case after receiving a letter from a guard at the jail where he is being held on death-row awaiting execution. His execution is only a few days away but the guard is convinced that the wrong man is about to be punished. Dani’s team decides to fight for him for two reasons. First,Osgood is mentally disabled and should not be executed as per the laws. Strangely, this did not form part of his defense in the initial trial and so Dani tries to find out why. Secondly, Dani and her team also believe that the wrong man is about to die for a crime that he didn’t commit. Right from the start, it’s a race against time to try and stop the execution and also find out the truth about Kelly’s murder.
The story is narrated through alternating POVs although Dani is the main narrator. Tommy who is the investigator in Dani’s team also narrates a few chapters. In between these narrations, there is a third voice that gives details about what really happened in 1994. This is the voice of the killer. The three narrations made this a very suspenseful read.
Dani was the lawyer filing motions, attending hearings and representing Osgood in court. I really liked the fact that author crafted her character in such a realistic manner. On one hand, she is a passionate lawyer fighting for justice. On the other hand, she is a mother of two with an adoring husband. I liked all sides of Dani. Tommy is the investigator in the story. Like Dani, we get to learn about his professional and personal life. At work, he gets the answers through all means necessary. On the other hand, he is a doting husband and father. The villain in this book is so dark and twisted but as always, these darker narrations heightened the tension in the book and were interesting to read.
I couldn’t predict the twists or even guess the identity of the killer until the reveal. I kept wondering if it was Osgood or someone else. The killer was sadistic, the kind that gets satisfaction from taking life and enjoys their victim’s fear. Could it be that Osgood, the quiet, seemingly gentle man is the real villain or is someone else waiting for him to take the fall for crimes that he didn’t commit? These are the questions that were running through my mind as I read the book. In addition, I was so nervous about the execution. I didn’t want Osgood to be executed in case he had been wrongfully convicted. This book had me at the edge of the seat until the final page.
Justice Delayed by Marti Green is a well written legal thriller with memorable, masterfully crafted characters. I enjoyed the legal aspects just as much as the thriller side of the book. The discussions about evidence were fascinating. In particular, the killer in this book used to bite the victims. It was interesting to see how different experts argued for or against the methods of matching bite marks on a victim to a suspect especially if there is no saliva for DNA analysis. Interestingly, this is an ongoing debate (outside the book) so I liked the fact that the author included this in the narrative. I also liked the minor cases within the main story whereby DNA was used to overturn wrongful convictions and solve cold cases especially those that occurred before the introduction of DNA testing in investigations. The thriller aspect is also quite interesting because it was so hard to guess the identity of the murderer. Was it Osgood or someone else? In addition, the suspense intensified when other murders similar to Karen’s were discovered.
This is a dark, twisty legal thriller that I would recommend to all fans of this genre. I have just found out that there are other four books by Marti Green featuring the Help Innocent Prisoners Project. I can’t wait to read all of them now.

Justice Delayed is the fifth legal thriller in the Innocent Prisoners Project written by author Marti Green. This is an excellent series that I would recommend. Thanks to NetGalley and Thomas and Mercer for the advance copy.

A heart-rending, legal suspense that's a definite MUST read! With a unique storyline, complex characters you'll immediately connect with, secrets, lies, intense and dangerous situations, and intriguing twists, you won't be able to put it down. This story will capture your heart right from the beginning, and hold tight long after the last word is read. Another fantastic book in this excellent series!
When Dani receives a letter from a guard at the prison where Jack Osgood, an intellectually challenged man, is a death row inmate, she's immediately intrigued. She's never had a guard reach out for help for an inmate, but also because it reminds her of her own son, who also is intellectually disabled. Although she doesn't accept cases unless she believes that the inmate is innocent, which she doesn't know enough about his case to determine that yet, but she does believe that he shouldn't be allowed to be executed. There's a law that prohibits developmentally disabled persons from being executed, but now she'll have to prove that he falls under this category.
While working his case, she and Tommy believe that he is in fact innocent, and the only way to help him is to figure out who the real killer is. Uncovering lies, deception, betrayal, and so much more, they're close to figuring out who the murderer is, but what will happen to Jack if they can't figure it out in time? Just how far will the murderer go to protect himself? What happens when he decides that this is personal? Will they be able to keep everyone safe until they finally catch him? You'll have to read this to find out! You won't be disappointed!
When I received this arc, I decided that I wanted to start the series from the beginning, and I'm so glad I did! I was hooked right from the start, and have loved every story. This series will take you on an emotional roller-coaster, you'll learn how the justice system works, and when it doesn't, and so much more. It has been a unique series of stories that I couldn't get enough of, and hope there will be more. I strongly recommend this book, series, and fantastic author!

The fifth legal thriller in the award-winning Help Innocent Prisoners Project series is Dani Trumball's most personal case yet, as she races to stop an execution and identify the real killer.
The brutal murder of sixteen-year-old Kelly Braden sends shock waves through a community - and an intellectually disabled man to jail. The only witness to Kelly's murder is the five-year-old cousin she was babysitting. The young girl names their neighbor, Jack Osgood, as the bat-wielding criminal. Two decades later, Osgood faces execution.
Defense Attorney Dani Trumball and her partner, investigator Tommy Noorland, are summoned to the Georgia prison where Osgood is on death row. With no friends or family of his own, there is no one left to believe Jack didn't kill Kelly but Dani and her Help Innocent Prisoners Project. With a mentally disabled son of her own, defending Osgood could be her most heartrending case yet.
While fighting a system that blocks her attempts to overturn his conviction, Dani must race to identify the real killer before Osgood's time runs out - and the murderer strikes again.
My comments.
another fantastic book in what is a fantastic series, had me guessing from start to finish and thankfully I did not figure out who the killer was this time. This is a really good series and hopefully there are more coming in the future. Would highly recommend this series if you like a good legal thriller and are interested in this kind of thing.

Great as ever
Marti Green writes those legal thrillers that once you start reading you won't be able to put down. She is up there in the same level as legal thriller giant the likes of John Grisham, though with not as many books yet.
Justice delayed is about an intelligently impaired man being on the death row for 22 years for a crime he didn't commit. Time is running out. His execution is imminent. The protagonist, a lawyer working with Help Innocent Prisoners Project is rushing with time to stop the execution by trying to prove his innocence. Can she do it?
The writing is so good you'll be on the edge of your seat from start to finish.

I really love Marti Green's Innocent Prisioners Project series. They're are solidly well-written reads, if a bit formulamatic. Each book is essentially laid out the same, but the stories are genuinely intriguing and moving. I really feel a lot of sympathy and sorrow for the wrongfully accused who have lost so much of their lives on flimsy evidence and weak stories presented as "evidence" by people with something to gain. It's a series that really makes you think about how often this might happen in real life. I'm not sure it changes my views on things, but... it makes me think maybe it should.
May 11, 2017
A very strong story that became more and more involved with each chapter and harder to put down. I had not read this author and now have to go back and get the earlier ones, as I enjoyed this one so much. I will also be on the lookout for any new releases in the future. This series also takes on the subject of wrongful imprisonment and clarifies some of the outdated ways evidence was looked at and the way newer advancements such as DNA have made it easier to be certain that the right person is convicted.

I won a free copy of this book through Goodreads.
I was impressed with this book. As a lawyer, it can be hard to keep me entertained with a legal thriller. I like how the author balanced professional and personal life in the plot. My only wish is that the interviews with suspects and witnesses be longer. They give up information too easily which leads to a bit too simple of an investigation and conclusion. This could make the book longer but the author is skilled enough to make it entertaining, and I'm definitely interested in reading more from her.

June 3, 2019This book is the fifth in the Innocent Prisoners Project series. Sixteen-year-old Kelly Braden is babysitting for her younger cousin Lisa when she gets abducted and killed. The suspect? An intellectually challenged man named Jack Osgood, who is ultimately convicted and sent to jail. Two years later, Jack Osgood is on death row and facing execution very soon. Defense Attorney Dani Trumball isn’t too sure that Osgood is actually guilty, and is terrified that an innocent man will die for someone else’s crime. Will she find out the truth before it’s too late?

What a nice surprise. Another excellent writer in the legal genre that I did not know.
I really liked the book, and the way the tension was built.
"Marti Green" let us know the main truth from the first page, and later on, the story is revealed little by little.
The only part that I didn't like so much was the too much engagement (in my opinion) with the family life of the main character.
It didn't contribute anything to the story itself, and I found myself skipping these sections, or just skimming through them quickly.

No spoilers but this is a really well done legal thriller with a unique twist. Green has handled the issue of developmental disability with great sensitivity and done us all a service by exploring the difficulties challenged individuals face in the legal system. Dani is a real hero in this installment of the series. Don't worry if you haven't read the earlier books, this one is fine as a standalone. Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC.

Just as good as the priors
This author does a fantastic job of bringing the reader into the story making characters sympathetic, and making the legal characters relatable. She explains things clearly and succinctly even if you do not understand the legal jargon. She has given me yet another author to wait upon as I have added her to my list of j.r.ward sherrilyn Kenyon John Grisham Etc.

"Justice Delayed" is yet another excellent installment in Marti Green's "Innocent Prisoners Project." Others have summarized the plot adequately, so I will simply mention that the novel is well-written/crafted and, to my liking, contains lots of courtroom drama. I thought I had the killer identified and was principally tracking the process of his capture; but, then, Marti threw in a whodunit twist, which piqued my interest to a new level. I am looking forward to #6 in the series...

Very good
This was last in the series and was just as good as the others. The Innocents project is something I have always been interested in and these books explained a lot of what happens when Innocent people are jailed. It is well written with enough suspense to keep me reading once I started til I finished.

I received this book in a Goodreads giveaway. It is Help Innocent Prisoners Project job to help the innocent get released from prison. Twenty-two years ago Jack Osgood, an intellectually disabled neighbor, was convicted, partially on the basis of a five year olds testimony. But Dani Trumbell from HIPP doesn't believe he's guilty and sets about to prove it.

I'm always sad when an excellent series, such as this one, comes to an end. I would like to read more about Dani Trumball and HIPP.
I found only two editing errors in this book:
Chapter 10: "... I sunk into a deep depression ..." SANK is the proper verb form.
Epilogue: "... she won't be able (TO) work for the courts again ..."
This is pretty exceptional.

I normally don’t enjoy legal lawyer books – this one was interesting but I didn’t find it to be a thriller, involved a serial killer and young teenage girls but guess it just wasn’t my cup of tea! It did have a happy ending though!

Interesting through out.
I have enjoyed this series and hope it continues bi-coastally. The characters are ones you love to see win and I hope there's more from this dynamic team.

Hoping Marti Green Will Another Book in This Series
I enjoyed each book in this series. Each story was very well-written and realistic. As a result of this series, I am going to do research on this topic.

I loved this book! The characters were well-developed and the plot amazing. I literally started the book and I stayed up late until I finished it. I love books that surprise me at the end and this one did. I totally did not guess who the guilty person was. I highly recommend this book!

First I won this in a Goodreads giveaway and this is the first book I've read in this series and the first by this autgor. The story was pretty good but the dialog was a little weak. I found the sections about the main character's personal live really annoying.

Another great book
I've become a fan of the Dani and Tommy team trying to help innocent prisoners. This story was interesting and exciting. It addressed the mommy guilt women are often faced with. I relate to the characters.

JUSTICE DELAYED
I read the first book in the Innocent Prisoners Project series in October of 2014, I just finished Justice Delayed-they are all great books, the main characters stayed with me. It's like revisiting with old friends. Hope there will be more in the series.
