In this story of justice gone awry, four innocent men separately confess to the heinous crime that none of them actually committed. Though the real perpetrator has since been convicted, three of the four remain in prison today, attesting to the powerful role confessions--even false ones--play in our criminal justice system, where they typically trump fact, reason, and common sense. Writer Wells and law professor Leo interweave a narrative covering the unfolding of the case with an exploration of topics ranging from coercive interrogation, police perjury ("testilying"), and prosecutorial politics, to the role of the death penalty in criminal law.--From publisher description. 000453473 60010 $$aBosko, Michelle,$$d-1997. 000453473 650_0 $$aMurder$$zVirginia$$zNorfolk$$vCase studies. 000453473 650_0 $$aRape$$zVirginia$$zNorfolk$$vCase studies. 000453473 650_0 $$aMurder$$xInvestigation$$zVirginia$$zNorfolk. 000453473 650_0 $$aTrials (Murder)$$zVirginia. 000453473 650_0 $$aConfession (Law)$$zVirginia. 000453473 7001_ $$aLeo, Richard A.,$$d1963- 000453473 85200 $$bgen$$hHV6534.N878$$iW45$$i2008 000453473 85641 $$3Table of contents$$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0816/2008014401.html 000453473 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:453473$$pGLOBAL_SET 000453473 980__ $$aBIB 000453473 980__ $$aBOOK
