LA Voice: “At any given time, between 2 percent and 10 percent of convicted persons in U.S. prisons are innocent. With 2.3 million people incarcerated in federal, state and local prisons and jails, that means that anywhere from 46,000 and 230,000 who were wrongfully convicted.
That is why I wrote 101 Wrongful Convictions in Louisiana, a 281-page book about individuals who were convicted and imprisoned (some for several decades) for crimes they did not commit.
I will be holding a book signing for this, my 11th book, at Cavalier House Books in Denham Springs this Saturday at 1:00 p.m. I will be discussing the injustices done to these individuals, the damage wrongful convictions do to our system of justice and the unfairness they do to the victims of crime. I hope to see you there.”
