Weaving together historical examples, scientific studies, and compelling court cases-from the border collie put on trial in Kentucky to the five teenagers who falsely confessed in the Central Park Jogger case-Benforado shows how our judicial processes fail to uphold our values and protect society's weakest members. With clarity and passion, he lays out the scope of the problem and proposes a wealth of reforms that could prevent injustice and help us achieve true fairness and equality before the law.
