Softcover. Everyone relies on the criminal justice system wherever they live to be fair and impartial. If police, lawyers and judges refused to look at all the evidence that was there before their eyes, or to listen to all the evidence that had to be heard, and only looked at what they wanted to see or hear in order to convict, there would be a great many more miscarriages of justice than there are today. The author looks at five cases where miscarriages of justice have happened to deaf people, some resulting in lengthy prison sentences they should never had to serve, including the infamous West Australian case of Darryl Beamish where another man confessed to the murder before being hanged for other murders. Illus. + Research and Bibliog. 139pp. trade size softcover. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. F. with no creasing to covers.
