Meld je aan bij LibraryThing om erachter te komen of je dit boek goed zult vinden. Op dit moment geen Discussie gesprekken over dit boek. A terrifying and heart-wrenching book! But it's great to hear how far the court system has come since some of the crimes Pirro recalls. Loved the story of Daniel, the boy chained to the radiator and about how he turned out so well. The world needs more women like Jeanine that have her courage. I've found a new role model!! Even the librarian recommended her as an advocate! ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Deemed "the avenging angel of American justice" (Chris Matthews, Hardball), Jeanine Pirro, the famed Westchester County district attorney, presents hard truths about a justice system that she believes coddles criminals at the expense of innocent victims. Taking readers inside her daily battles on behalf of victims -- from the adolescent girl forced to assume wifely duties after her father murdered her stepmother to a hardworking man shot over a parking place -- District Attorney Pirro delivers a bold indictment of the criminal justice system and lays bare the ways in which parents, communities, and the system share complicity in fostering a dangerous environment for our citizens. With the blunt courage of a woman who has spent her entire career working in a male-dominated world, Pirro demonstrates determination and compassion that will inspire anyone who has ever been a victim -- or a victim's loved one. Finally, To Punish and Protect includes updated appendixes to help you and your loved ones make smart decisions about safety. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
