Thanks to NetGalley, WildBlue Press, and Diane Marger Moore for the opportunity to read this book. 3.5 stars
This is the true story, written by the prosecutor, of Michelle Jones, a young mother on trial for killing her 4-year-old son. These stories are always horrifying but what was so surprising to me was the differing verdicts between this case and the eerily-similar case of Casey Anthony. While race wasn't presented as an issue in this story, which took place in Indianapolis, with a young, black single mother as opposed to Casey Anthony, a pretty white girl. Meanwhile, both children are dead.
The author did a good job walking you through the entire trial - I learned quite a bit about the judicial system.
