Great book. Travesty of justice.

Aunt Joyce, even though you're in Heaven's atmosphere right about now, even though I Thanked You long before You even transitioned, still I'd like to say Thank You once again. I wish you were still here, because I'd hate to sound like a Fat Kid, but I miss you're Bread Pudding too.

This is the second book I've read about an innocent person going to jail and then being exonerated. If falsely accused it is near impossible to be exonerated - a near miracle I'd say. I heard her speak last week and she was wonderful. I liked the book a lot and would have given it 5 stars except for all the detail and truth she shares about what goes on in the prisons - super aweful :( To think she endured it for nearly 9 years!!

Joyce Ann Brown actually visited my church a few years ago. She talked about the whole experience from beginning to end. It was even some suprising things that happened that wasn't in the book. It was amazing to have gotten a autographed copy of the book.

It was horrific that we could imprison an innocent person! I actually wished the book was longer and went into more detail of her childhood and then what she did with her life after she was finally set free.
