I wasn't sure where this book was going...was it going to retell a horrible crime or go on about police mismanagement, the justice system, the crassness of the media. I felt this book was lacking something that perhaps a better writer could have gleaned, but if there's anything I learned from this book, it's always have a lawyer present when talking to the police.
