Guilty Justice: A true story of how justice is complicated by bias and neglect

Guilty Justice is a story based on true events, although names and locations of the story have been changed. Chevis Hooker, a completer of a special education program in the late 1990's, gets caught up in a grotesque miscarriage of justice in a small town run by a power crazed sheriff. Unable to defend himself against a corrupt organization of attorneys and criminal justice system, Chevy is thrown in jail for a crime for which he declares he had nothing to do. Following a trial filled with bias and neglect, one member of the trial team experiences remorse and assembles a team of outside specialists to combat Chevy's sentence. Read along and see how far off-track corruption can move and the effort needed to reverse course. Decisions made throughout the story, despite being built around a true event, defy logic and will leave you wondering how these actions can ever take place.Given the current Black Lives Matter movement and the continuous revelation of violence imposed on black citizens, Guilty Justice provides a time warp to an earlier day when mistreatment was just as pervasive, if not more. Guilty Justice demonstrates how far wrong the corrections system had moved. As one reviewer commented, "This story is actually two books in one."
