The book is an expose of the attorneys and judges who let criminals go free. That's my world - a world where criminals go free more often than not. Or so it seems.
I see it from the other side, the victim's side. As a victim advocate, I have the opportunity to see (up close and personal) that the rights of victims are often not protected.
These words are on the dedication page of Wendy Murphy's book:
"To all the victims, win or lose, who fought for justice.
And to the silent ones who didn't even try because they had no faith."
Profound words, especially for those who advocate for victims of violence everyday.
May it NEVER be said of us that we were "the silent ones who didn't even try because we had no faith."
Just my thoughts,
