Hardback. Zustand: Fair. From the author of The Long Run comes another unflinchingly raw and boldly hilarious novel about an unlikely group of teens coming together to exact revenge on the person who wronged them. All's fair in love and revenge. Phil Reyno is a "troublemaker." With a punk aesthetic and a quick temper, Phil knows that it's surprising to see him dating universally beloved Cameron Ellis, whose viral coming out video made him an internet darling. Jackson Pasternak is a "good guy." Junior class president, star rower, and Ivy bound, Jackson is burnt out and misses the only person who ever truly knew him--his ex-best friend, Phil. When Cameron dumps Phil and torpedoes his already-iffy reputation in the process, Phil hatches a plot to expose Cameron as the two-faced liar he truly is. And he finds the perfect weapon in his old pal Jackson, who agrees to infiltrate Cameron's circle and uncover dirt. But as Phil and Jackson rediscover their friendship--and more--they start to wonder. Will knocking Cameron off his pedestal really solve their problems? Praise for The Long Run "Written with equal doses of heart and ferocity, this is a fabulous debut." --Abdi Nazemian, author of Stonewall Honor book Like a Love Story and The Chandler Legacies "Raw, real, electric, and unputdownable." --Steven Salvatore, critically acclaimed author of And They Lived. "James Acker is a splashy new voice with an unforgettable romcom about tough guys with soft hearts." --Adam Sass, award-winning author of Surrender Your Sons and The 99 Boyfriends of Micah Summers * "A stunning novel." --Bookpage, starred review.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. This volume addresses issues of law, science, and policy related to wrongful convictions in the American system of justice. Coverage includes the incidence, correlates, causes, and consequences of wrongful convictions, as well as recommended reforms. The materials are organized in the form of a casebook, comprising edited judicial decisions and complementary materials from law, psychology, criminal justice, and related disciplines. Wrongful convictions are tragedies on multiple levels. By understanding how they occur, however, we can learn how to prevent them -- and better identify those that exist. This text is a valuable resource for anyone interested in advancing justice and safety through our systems of criminal justice.-- Stephen Saloom, Policy Director, Innocence Project The ice has finally been broken. Acker and Redlich's Wrongful Conviction is the first casebook dedicated solely to the subject of wrongful convictions. It has set a high standard of excellence that will be a tough act to follow. Not only will this well-organized and easy-to-read casebook appeal to law professors who teach seminars in such subjects as wrongful convictions, criminal procedure, and psychology and the law, but it should also appeal to undergraduate professors who teach students interested in careers in law and criminal justice.-- Steven A. Drizin, Clinical Professor of Law and Legal Director of the Center on Wrongful Convictions, Northwestern University School of Law This book sets out an important and accessible track of study. Starting with the question of what is a wrongful conviction, the authors also explain the basic features of the criminal process and evidence law, and introduce contributions from the social sciences to help our understanding of sources of error. That journey will engage all interested in understanding what can cause wrongful convictions and what can improve the quality of criminal justice.-- Brandon L. Garrett, Professor of Law, University of Virginia School of Law Acker and Redlich provide a current and comprehensive analysis of the legal procedures and standards that produce and resolve wrongful criminal convictions. Their presentation is part handbook for lawyers, part history lesson for scholars, and part quest for policy reforms. Their coverage is engaging and broad: from false confessions and faulty eyewitness identification, to flawed forensic evidence and, ultimately, compensation for those who are exonerated. I urge all defense attorneys to read and use this book; and I beg all prosecutors to do the same. Professors around the country: assign this book to all of your students -- Kimberly J. Cook, Professor of Sociology and Criminology, University of North Carolina Wilmington Acker and Redlich have succeeded admirably in achieving their goals of selecting watershed and little-known, but important cases that define and illustrate the focal issues in each area of wrongful conviction and in discussing the results of relevant social science research and their policy implications. The notes and questions following each section are excellent. The notes provide supplemental material in a condensed fashion and the questions prompt thoughtful dialogue and encourage further study. . an outstanding scholarly contribution to the field of wrongful conviction. -- Criminal Law Bulletin An excellent book . It should also be on the shelf of every scholar interested in wrongful convictions, as it provides a wealth of important materials. -- Criminal Justice Review.…
