Here are some of the reviews:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>This is a really interesting read about some of the most well known trials in history as well as some not as well known &#8211; well to me at least. I have read about some of these cases and had some preconceived ideas and some opinions on them based on what I have read, seen and so forth. However this book definitely made me think about things in a different way in practically every part of the crimes I knew and the ones I didn&#8217;t I researched them and then read the authors points which again was really interesting. I may not have agreed with everything they said or necessarily the outcome of their arguments it was still a thought provoking read. If you love true crime, then this is a book you should definitely check out.<\/p>\n<cite>Kirsty posted on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CkvCSCVLb9o\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">instagram<\/a>. writing on instagram. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/fiction_vixen18\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">@fiction_vixen18<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>This book thoroughly captivated me from start to finish. I am a true crime lover! Many of these cases I had heard of and some I hadn&#8217;t. Despite this, I learned a lot from this book. I appreciate the book includes a large swath of crimes, from the very high profile to the not so well known. The book challenged some of my own biases thus I found myself reconsidering my previous thoughts based on the information presented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I highly recommend it! This book will keep you thinking long after you&#8217;ve finished the final page.<\/p>\n<cite>Kristin.

And I think this is what made it petrifying!<br>That it continued back and forth for so many years.<br>That police involvement and their bias is often skewed.<br>That the media outlets often provide &#8216;fake&#8217; information (which we release already) but that this determines people&#8217;s judgement and eventually any outcome of cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This could happen to any of us!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was a little confused at first as it seemed to be telling us that open media during cases is a bad thing &#8211; often false representation and offers bias &#8211; but then the author makes it her job to get that information out into the media?<br>However, I think as I understand it, that it&#8217;s about getting that information out there in a responsible manner and offering the real facts about cases so that we can offer public judgment that is not skewed by others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Totally fascinating and has left me craving more like this!<\/p>\n<cite>@Book_a_holic_17 on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/book_a_holic_17\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">instagram<\/a>.

I was expecting more of a balanced approach, so this took me aback, but then I soon realised if they worked on her case, that was inevitable.<br>That said, this was a fascinating look at some well known cases and definitely shed light on the impact of social media in trying to get a fair trial.<\/p>\n<cite>Natalie writing as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/justiceintheageofjudgment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">@curlingupwithacoffeeandakindle. <\/a>Read the original post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/ClSGr9_sszJ\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">here<\/a>.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More to follow later!<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thank you for everyone who did The Love Books Tours for Justice in the Age of Justice.
