Dieses Buch ist ein Schocker. Nicht im herkömmlichen Sinne. Es untermauert Fakten mit dem Psychogram verschiedener Personen. Es legt Fakten dar und erläutert die daraus gewonnenen Erkenntnisse. Der Autor verschönt nichts, hinterfragt teilweise die Geschehnisse und zeigt die Realität unverschönt auf. Dabei wird deutlich, dass niemand jemals wirklich als unschuldig betrachtet wird, da man als Opfer stets seine Unschuld beweisen muss. Die Polizei sollte von der Unschuldsvermutung ausgehen, doch das Gegenteil ist der Fall. Das es in einem Zusammenhang stimmt verbessert nicht die Situation, aber wie das eigentliche Opfer stets bei den Ermittlungen zum Täter verdreht werden kann, ohne es zu sein, ist ehrlich gesagt erschreckend.

Very well written but I noticed I started to get a bit annoyed because it appeared the author believed anything Bonnie van Stein told him. I want to read jerry Bledsoe's book about the same case. I've heard that he had access to the other defendants. I am not sure if the real killer(s) was punished enough. 3.5
