Stories about crime and criminal justice that life has written. Sometimes amusing and humorous, sometimes bizarre, macabre, or tragicomic, always peculiar and mostly smile-inducing. Many of these experiences the author has encountered in practice and academia. You’ll learn revealing, even unbelievable things about criminal law professors with textbook criminality or criminologists who claim to have discovered the seat of evil in the brain and the physiognomy of the born criminal. There are criminal antics from students on display. The harsh and stern, laughing and ridiculous justice system is unmasked. It covers the criminal machinations of the devil's advocates, grotesque misjudgments by the gods in white, manipulated court reports, and trigger-happy politicians. Thieving magpies, murderous men, deadly women, and con artists make their appearances. Reading is a must.
